  • Britain in the Falklands War
    GENDER AND NATIONHOOD: BRITAIN IN THE FALKLANDS WAR INTRODUCTION: ‘THE YOMPER’ In 1992 Lady Thatcher gave the inaugural speech at the unveiling of a commemorative statue of ‘The Yomper' at the Royal Marines Museum in Eastney, Portsmouth. This ceremony, and the statue itself, link together the two areas which this paper examines: the ways in which the Falklands War was gendered and the ways in which it was represented as a continuation of the Second World War. In its physical appearance 'The Yomper' is a very active, heroic, masculine representation of war and of soldiering. Not all commemorative statues of war look like this: the Vietnam Memorial in Washington and the Cenotaph in London show that memorials to the dead in warfare do not have to literally 'refigure' them. Instead, 'The Yomper' can be seen as a particular way of remembering a particular war. The Falklands War was a war in which gender divisions were seen in very sharp relief. Men went away to battle whilst women waited at home. The male soldiers seen in the media and spoken of in Parliament were active, fighting for their country; the women at home were seen as relatively passive, able to do little except wait for news of their men. The statue represents, in figurative form, this gendering of warfare. Unveiling the statue, and explaining how the phrase 'to yomp' had entered the British language in 1982, Lady Thatcher described the role of the Royal Marines, and of the rest of the Task Force, during the Falklands War: "Without warning, they and others were called upon to restore British people and British territory to the freedom and justice which we take for granted.

    FOR SALE FREEHOLD On the instruction of : THE ROYAL MARINES MUSEUM EASTNEY ESPLANADE, SOUTHSEA, HAMPSHIRE PO4 9PX “The most architecturally distinguished Officers’ barracks in England” A UNIQUE REDEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY SUITABLE FOR ALTERNATIVE USES (STP) INTRODUCTION The closure of the Museum and transfer of artefacts to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard into a new museum will broaden the massive appeal of the Royal Marines story and hence the existing building is now surplus to requirements. LOCATION Portsmouth lies at the centre of the South coast alongside the Solent, 65 miles south- west of London and 19 miles to the east of Southampton. The major part of the City lies on Portsea Island which is served by three road links to the mainland, the M275, the A3 London Road and the A2030 Eastern Road, all of which connect with the M27/A27. There is a mainline train service to London Waterloo, a passenger ferry service across the entrance to Portsmouth Harbour to Gosport, passenger and car ferry services to the Isle of Wight and passenger and car ferry services to France and Spain from the Portsmouth Continental Ferry Port. The population of the urban area is some 187,000 with an age demographic reflecting that of the UK. The property is located in Eastney on the south eastern corner of Portsea Island. The building itself is situated on the north side of Eastney Esplanade overlooking Eastney Beach and Seafront. Postcode: DESCRIPTION PO4 9PX The Museum is the former Officers’ quarters and mess completed circa 1865, designed by William Scamp (Director of the Admiralty Works dept) and is the principal building within the Eastney Barracks site.

  • Streamlining the Quango State PAPER BRIEFING
    Streamlining the Quango State BRIEFING PAPER By Tim Ambler EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • Westminster governments have festooned themselves with public bodies, col- lectively barnacles on the ship of state. To govern well, the executive of a gov- ernment (the Cabinet and ministers) should focus on governing and not be side- tracked by other functions. The Public Administration Select Committee and the National Audit Office have complained of the lack of any clear taxonomy of these “arm’s length bodies” (ALBs). • Some of these ALBs (non-departmental public bodies) are part of, and yet in- dependent of, the executive at the same time. If being part of the executive is more important, they should be “executive agencies”; if being independent is more important, they should be accountable to another branch of state. The ex- ecutive is only one branch of the state – the legislature and judiciary are others. Democractic accountability derives from Parliament, our elected representa- tives; the executive is only democratic to the extent that it is accountable to Parliament. • Sir Robin Ibbs created executive agencies to provide government departments with specialist units to deliver policies. Crucially, their performance should be measured against pre-defined quantified targets and reported annually. • The Cabinet Office lists 16 “non-ministerial departments” and 185 “non-de- partmental public bodies”, (i.e. quangos). This paper proposes reclassification as either executive agencies, reporting to some branch of the state other than the executive, merger with another body or its parent department, privatisa- tion, or closure. • Not all readers will agree with every reclassification, but the wood matters more than individual trees.

  • The Unseen Government of the Uk
    www.taxpayersalliance.com Structure of Government No.1 THE UNSEEN GOVERNMENT OF THE UK In 2003, the parliamentary Select Committee on Public Administration criticised the Government’s inadequate approach to mapping Britain’s public bodies. 1 Its report highlighted the failure of successive administrations to provide a clear picture of the true size and cost of this unseen layer of government. Five years on, the Government has yet to address this problem. Among the Committee’s priority recommendations was for a list to be published annually, registering each public body, its costs and its responsibilities, accompanied by a clear explanation of the bewildering variety of organisations which fall under the term “public body” (often referred to as “quangos”).2 This paper – the first in a new ‘Structure of Government’ series from the TaxPayers’ Alliance – attempts to do what government has far failed to do, providing people with a comprehensive picture of Britain’s “unseen government”. Using the legal definition of “subsidiary” – as stated in the Companies Act of 2006 – government in the UK controlled at least 2,063 subsidiary bodies in 2006-07, if not many more. 3 This number includes the 469 Local Authorities, 432 plus NHS Trusts, and the 1,162 quangos and agencies which are the focus of this report. It does not include the hundreds of police forces, fire services and other subsidiary spending bodies in the UK, or the 36 EU agencies with responsibilities in the United Kingdom. Number Staff TaxPayer Funding, £million Quangos and Agencies 1,162 714,430 63,518 Local Authorities 469 2,297,000 92,490 NHS Trusts and Boards 4 432 1,478,559 101,400 Total 2,063 4,489,989 257,408 1 House of Commons Public Administration Committee, June 2003, Government by Appointment: Opening up the Patronage State 2 Ibid – p.61 (paragraph 38) 3 Companies Act 2006: Part 37, Section 1159 , p.56 4 The stated figures reflect funding spent on health by the Westminster parliament and grant-in-aid given to NHS Boards by the Scottish Executive.
