We the undersigned Petition the Prime Minister to Ensure that the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight is not axed in any defence cuts It has been suggested that the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (BBMF) - which celebrates the sacrifice of those who flew during the 2nd World War - will be cut in the next round of defence cuts. This will be a travesty if it was to go ahead.
The BBMF is said to cost a mere £3m a year, less than 0.1% of the defence budget.
It is a great delight for all who see their displays, and, if closed, the memory of 'The Few' will be lost. Please vote to ensure that the BBMF is not closed. Simply click on the link above, fill in the form and then pass this on.
Got your e-mail Ian. Done mine and forwarded the petition on my contacts list.
Thanks for bringing it to our attention. If our so-called Government scrap the BBMF, they need, as Goering said "Their ar**s kicked out"!!
Terry, I also received e-mail you forwarded to me regarding this. Would like to sign the petition but how can I when I'm not a British citizen or resident. Hope this works, however, and that BBMF will be preserved.
Had the same message yesterday Gary, which in reality said sweet bugger all. Have to keep the fingers crossed. The Red Arrows could also be on the cards again.
