Fook me! Sassoon and Owen were too posh to comment! Posh people not allowed views then? That Farage bloke, he's a bit posh. Mind you, I dismiss his views on Europe I suppose, but based on his naive philosophy rather than his logic. Let's get this right. If you were capable, as the poets of the trenches appeared, of articulating the awful situation, you are irrelevant because you contradict the view that the Generals wrote from their hq bases a few miles back? As The Imperial War Museum, The British Museum and other establishment bodies were concerned with the official account of the war, dissenting views are immaterial? I'll give you this much Keith, you write as if you are keeping a straight face.
