Whoops, Just saw that the followng entry is incorrect. To bad

What is the story? The prime minister and opposition leader seem to have stopped attending funerals for soldiers that have died in Afghanistan……. why?

Are these recently lost lives any less important than the first few soldiers who died?

Is it because the dignitary are otherwise engaged and would have gone if they could?

Did they attend a couple of these expecting that there would not be too many to go to?

At the risk of being offensive is it simply because the election is over?

Can anyone fill me in here, what has changed?
