Since when has "serving your country" been an opportunity for a nice little earner from Rupert Murdoch? Today, the Ministry of Defence and the Royal Navy are understandably accused of undermining the reputation of Britain's armed force.The navy's move to suspend its usual rules - taken "as a result of exceptional media interest" and with the agreement of the defence secretary, Des Browne - has been condemned by opposition politicians, former officers and the families of dead service personnel. The Head of the Army, Sir Richard Dannett, is said to have issued an edict banning his troops from doing the same. Frankly, it's an outrage. An appalling insult to families who have lost loved ones in Iraq and elsewhere. And absolutely typical of a Government which has lost its moral compass.
