One for those injured in the British military and medically discharged

If the primary invaliding condition (PIC) is wrong, the rest of the system can go wrong with your pension, compensation and tax

@DebAllcockTyler is there an audio version of your book It’s a Battle on the Board?

I am loving the book and it is transforming my understanding and actions as a charity trustee.

@NorfolkSaffron @paulpowlesland Himalayam balsam is a massive problem round us on the NE edge of Dartmoor but the difference is that it is super easy to remove.

Just want to try and do it before all the flowers come into bud with seed, like they are now (I say with 1/2 an acre of the stuff to remove!)

[Charlie Radclyffe @CharlieRadUK]

@paulpowlesland I suggest you never visit Paington Zoo; literally acres of Japanese knotweed on their site.

Like you say, almost too much now there for them to ever see any point in trying to get rid of it.

Military folk + the Armed Forces Covenant.

What's the best guide you've read that really explains the Covenant, how it works, its strengths and its limitations?

Looking for an independent analysis of it in detail.

Veterans Mobility Fund #VMF

Anyone had success, since 2024, applying for sports equipment you require because of your service-attributable injury?

I'm getting quotes from RMA and RGK for a wheelchair rugby chair.

@AnVista34 @leandroOnX @grok I’ve been to North Korea and can vouch for the scenes in this video

[Charlie Radclyffe @CharlieRadUK]

@selhurstpaw1 Applying is such a challenge for so many. Hope your claim is successful.

How many people eligible for Personal Independence Payment (PIP) don't claim it?

For veterans going through AFCS / WP appeals, Tribunals or just battling Veterans UK(!), invest in a copy of this - the 'Bano Bible'. @CharlieRadUK kindly let me borrow a copy, but as I'm yet again back to Tribunal, I need my own. This, a watch of Legally Blonde, & I'm good to go

[Charlie Radclyffe @CharlieRadUK]

@Adam9Green If anyone would like to borrow a copy, send me a DM and I can post you one.

Would love to find a decent paper to refer to.

[Tristan Kirk @kirkkorner]

I should point out that this is not a CPS matter

Health and Safety Executive prosecution, defendant is British Airways

Quite why both bodies are unaware of open justice rules & think they can make secret submissions to a court is beyond me

[Tristan Kirk @kirkkorner]

What the judge and barristers probably haven't counted on is my stubborn willingness to pursue my application after this hearing. For weeks and months if necessary.

The #OpenJustice failings today are so disappointing, and shouldn't just be allowed to stand

[Tristan Kirk @kirkkorner]

Given the prosecutor turned down my request for a copy of his note about ten minutes into the lunch hour, I wonder if the judge thought I should run out to the local library for printing or routinely carry around my own printer for these such occasions.

[Tristan Kirk @kirkkorner]

In an exciting twist, the judge essentially refused to hear my request, said courts don't spend their time 'sitting on their hands' and have better things to do than hear from me, and then admonished me for not providing written copies of my legal authorities in advance

[Tristan Kirk @kirkkorner]

Journalists are supposed to sit at the back, listen to what is said, and report only that, he says

He's adamant that reporters never get access to written material

I told him we have a fundamental difference of opinion, and will have to ask the judge...
