When she was a young child, the Dame spent a day with Field Marshal Montgomery.
At the end of the day, just before we left, he asked us all a question.
“What is the most important word in the English language?”
He answered it for us: “Integrity.”
In those far-off days, our British leaders held integrity in high regard. The behaviour of Lord Mandelson and his friends reminds us how far we have fallen.
Monty had faults but the reason he was a great leader was the devotion he had to his men. Lovely story of him asking his men what was the most important thing they had. They replied, “our rifles, Sir” “No, men” replied Monty, “it’s your lives and I am here to make sure you keep them”
What would these wartime leaders think of the political slimebags who have hijecked our democracy
The Dame was lucky to be able to meet Montgomery. Something to tell grandchildren though I suppose our left-wing teachers don’t teach our kids about our country’s history.
