Roz,  It’s just my sad old play on Michael Caine/ Stanley Baker in the film Zulu as they faced the advancing enemy. it sprang to mind on the 25/10/13 when the ConDems figured out that another one of their welfare reforms was unravelling before their eyes….Hold it, hold it…

Atos would have had that hospital cleared in no time with all the troops classed as A1 for front line duty defending the perimiter.

Front Rank: Jobbiecentre
Middle Rank: Benefit Delivery centres
Rear Rank: Fire!

Is that an instruction for the rear rank to do something or an exhoration for someone to make them unemployed? If its the latter could we add a couple of well known politicians?

the front rank title has entirely different connotations in Scotland tony.

I wont comment on the accuracy of that connotation.
