The MOD has 26 years of experience integrating the trans minority into service; into an organisation where its people work, live and fight together. But in the same way that there was no evidence to justify the ban on LGBT+ volunteers in the 50s and 60s, there is no evidence to justify a regression in the rights, dignity, opportunity and working experience of the current serving trans minority.

The British soldier accused of murdering the Kenyan woman Agnes Wanjiru in 2012 has been named as Robert James Purkiss. Purkiss, 38, was named in court documents at the high court in Nairobi this week, where a court issued a warrant for his arrest. The high court judge Alexander Muteti issued the arrest warrant on Tuesday in Kenya, with the prosecution telling the court that Purkiss had been charged with a single count, of murder.

"All of a sudden, I realised I could truly be any way I wanted to be, and no one would bat an eye," shared Chappell Roan, reflecting on her experience at The Abbey.

The British Army's size increase, aimed at addressing new threats, is deferred until after the next election, emphasizing ongoing recruitment and retention issues.
