AS we approach a General Election you will hear more and more from previously disinterested political leaders, like Sir Keir Starmer, on supporting our veterans and defence more broadly. Why? Because if they don’t believe in anything at all, these are emotional topics that can make them appear as if they care when, in reality, they’ve never lifted a finger to help stand up for those who serve. Don’t be fooled. My military service was under a Labour Government.

They will be encouraged to use the skills they honed in the Armed Forces to get high paid jobs under a landmark scheme to be unveiled on Friday. It forms part of the government’s mission to make the UK the best place in the world to be a veteran.

BEN McBEAN is a war hero who proudly served his country – and lost an arm and a leg in Afghanistan. That he had been denied a blue badge disabled parking permit by council pen-pushers is a disgrace. Our veterans deserve better. Here, two respected voices – veterans minister and former Commando Johnny Mercer and Falklands War hero Simon Weston – demand authorities give our heroes their due respect.

The Great American Songbook is one of the jewels of our culture. Created largely, if not exclusively, by the sons of Jewish immigrants to New York City in the first four decades of the 20th century, and performed largely, if not exclusively, by the sons of immigrants from Italy, it has given more pleasure to more people than almost anything. I have chosen a dozen songs, one a month, to illustrate the wonders of this fabled book. They are not the 12 ‘best’ songs, because that is an impossible task.
