    I spotted this on the front of paper this morning and just checked it out. Does anyone know what the full story is here? What operation started this RAF hate, if you want to call it that! Seems like a real shame to me. Service men and women should be held in high regard for all overseas duties regardless of the politics.

    Apparently is due to confrontations with youths in towns with Muslim populations.

    I think it is only Peterborough they are not allowed to wear their uniforms in. As Pathfinder said, I think this is due to abuse from Muslim youths more than anything.

    :/ jayzus, not doing themselves any favors are they.surely they should be given sentences for attacking the state. That is what it is, if it was abuse to a cop they'd be locked up.
