| Fake Rear Admiral 09:15 - Nov 14 with 1622 views | NthQldITFC | Man suspected of being fake high-ranking admiral at Remembrance event investigated https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ckgy42yjn1xo Anyone got any thoughts on who this might be? He looks in stance, to me, a little like a chap who has recently lost some other baubles and handles. Or is it Paul Lambert? "Ah played on some really big ships, don't ya know." |  |

Plus, I thought the armed forces didn't necessarily have an issue with people dressing up for un-earned ranks, and wearing un-earned medals? |  |

Yeah, but it’s different when someone born into privilege wears medals. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Whilst I very much dislike Reform, there is an irony in the publicity of this: "Conservative Town Councillor Xavier Turner, who witnessed the entire incident, said: “I came along to pay my respects. I do not wish Remembrance Sunday to be hijacked as a political football. “We were all in disbelief over what the Reform candidate was doing.”" |  |

I think the BBC overlaid Trump's face on the Admiral but got cold feet after other news caught up with them. |  | |  |

Absolute waste of the police's and the courts' time. I'd wager any sum of money that this was not what the legislation was intended to cover when it was drafted. |  |

He was looking it was his brother taking his "Prince", and not the FBI taking his prints. |  | |  |
