Interesting court martial on the horizon, General in the dock.

Your Post provoked another thought.

When your Platoon / Troop is zooming round the Assault Course trying for best possible time - is it permissable to give a female colleague a shove *********** to help her over the 10' wall ? Or are you leaving yourself open for all sorts of disciplinary issues ?

Come to think of it, the same goes for some blokes.
Now it is legal for homosexuals to serve , could the same scenario with an openly gay colleague be misconstrued as groping ?

I really hope wokeness has not affected what was quite an enjoyable way to spend a morning.

Edit - asterisks above did not like 'up the ar*e ' for some reason

Why would it open yourself up to all sorts of disciplinary issues? There are lots of jobs when people touch each other.

If you dont touch people without good reason then, generally you wont find yourself in the shit.

If you're using the flat of your hand on her buttocks / hips? Probably fine.

If you're using a bowler's grip? Interview, no coffee.

If you're using a clenched fist, and lose your watch? Free round of drinks that evening, before an escort to MCTC.

With some blokes you'd say 'it was only a matter of time' and others 'no effing way'. I assume by 'blimey' your initial response is the latter?

Well of course you never know but I certainly wouldn't have thought he was the type - if there's a type.

The irony of his current post hasn't passed me by either!

And the prosecutor kicks off

“He should not have been claiming the allowance. He dishonestly wanted to continue to keep the privilege of having his two children in private education.”
“He has been signing up to CEA repeatedly since 2007 so there can’t be any doubt that he’s not fully familiar with the rules.”
She cancelled her plans, drove up and spent the week going out and about being seen and being visible in the local area.” (His wife covering his arse)

Senior army officer court martialed for alleged £48,000 fraud

Maj Gen Nick Welch is the most senior general to face court martial since 1815

Heh heh heh let the entertainment commence.

Interestingly our Nick was up in front of the beak today in Bulford. Four weeks have been put aside for the hearing.
Several questions fall out of this... 1. Who dobbed him in in the first place? And 2. Who have they found to sit on the board?

Just out of interest, which four Arrsers would you have selected for this role? Storeperson Stacker would be shoe in for Mr President.....
Edited to add: Sadly I’d have to decline the invitation as I know him.

It's amazing that you have to explain to people who have lived under British law.

British law? What is that exactly?

Is that like the Law of the United Kingdom, with Northern Ireland law taken out? Or maybe a pick and mix of English, Scottish and Welsh law?

Or maybe you could just do a better internet search. Try wiki:

Law of the United Kingdom - Wikipedia

Just as well, its not like you would be much use on military matters, remember when you accused an SAS WW2 veteran of being a walt?

I cant see it on this list,

That is because it isn't on there.

You need to accept that occasionally someone in the Army knows something that you don't.
