If I was going to be rudely blunt I might wonder if you get fcuk all because you ask for fcuk all. If you don't think you deserve better why should anyone else?

Sigh... it was a smiley.... the Taoiseach is technically the Minister for Defence at the moment, PK is Minister of State with "Responsibility", therefore the Minister for Defence has a Military ADC or Assistant."Are they trying to shoot down the other drone? "
"No, they're trying to fly the tank"

Originally posted by ropebag View PostHe was and he does. He does town halls with Ptes and JNCO's pretty much everywhere he goes. I like him, a lot, I think he's a fantastic bloke doing a brilliant job - he's had a big impact already and he's set the die for ASM's to be as challenging and outspoken as possible.
Yes he is pushing an open door but is an notice taken?
Originally posted by Fantasia View Postno because the DOD control EVERYTHING that gets to the MfD. He doesn't get to see anything that those that set his agenda do not want him to see.
Not military policy/advise

More of a traditional post with ceremonial responsibilities and protocol as opposed to an actual policy advisor"Are they trying to shoot down the other drone? "
"No, they're trying to fly the tank"

Compare the submissions from RACO, ARCO and PDFORRA. The RA's are only as good as those they elect. What PDFORRA published was utter drivel and its membership should have a long hard look at who's running the RA on their behalf. A sixteen page submission, the majority of which was made by the ICTU. Heck, even ARCO had more of their own original content vs PDFORRAs copy and paste from the ICTU.
RACO's tome in contrast ran to 246 pages, no wonder it was taken more seriously.Last edited by northie; 10 May 2018, 09:07.

Ah lads I've just read PDFORRAs submission and RACO's . For fking shame ; how on earth can PDFORRA justify that kind of submission when you look at RACO's. that is awful . Wheres ARW allowance, duty money, MSA, sub and any of the rest . I'm neutral here and I've been an Pte and an NCO . I could have provided FEMPI, Bord Snip allowance, any of the Gleeson report backdrops and we have union folks in the RDF who'd have given a dig out if asked and thats just me .
you only get one shot at this for the next 10 years !
