I do believe it will be greatly appreciated but this again is nothing more than an election ploy move …It is so unfortunate that we wait until year 4 to make this happen ,to be honest it raises their payout to what an additional $5k to do this but want big recognition for it …plp want to be seen as for the people but are really not ….they need to be the next opposition they are better equipped to be

Sorry Mr. Caines but your faux concern for war vets rings a bit hollow. When you pay incompetents like Wayne Furbert 5,000.00 a month for doing nothing and your 2 ministers without portfolio approx. 8-10,000.00 a month, $200.00 doesn’t cut it. Pay those 3 what they are worth and you could increase the Vets pension to $200.00 per week

makes sense. There are less war vets alive now so the savings the govt has been making due to having less war vets can be passed on to the surviving war vets
