Sailors “should not feel compelled to wear” their uniforms in public and could be advised to cover up military insignia when commuting, according to a leaked Royal Navy email seen by GB News.
On 26 July Royal Navy officers were sent an email following the stabbing of an off-duty military officer discussing guidance around wearing uniforms outside of military bases.
The email stated: “Further to the incident on 23rd July where an off-duty Army Officer was stabbed near Brompton Barracks, please find below guidance regarding the wearing of uniform in public: Members of the Armed Forces proudly wear their uniform, and this is an important part of our ethos.”
“However, all people who wear a uniform are at greater risk from terrorism than the average member of the public, simply by virtue of the Military's position in society and the ability for the public to recognise Service Personnel when in uniform.”

“There is no ban on the wearing of uniform in public, but personnel should not feel compelled to wear it outside MOD establishments when common sense says a lower profile would be more appropriate,” the memo continued.
“Commanding Officers or Heads of Establishment are to provide guidance on what is appropriate for their local circumstances.”
“This could possibly include not wearing uniform outside the place of work; covering uniform and military insignia when commuting to and from work; or continuing existing practice.”
Robert Bates, a political commentator, told GB News: “We now live in a society where overt gestures of pride in Britain, and what it represents, are frowned upon, not celebrated.”

“The armed forces represent the very best of our country, but these emails show that the MOD are now too embarrassed by our troops to defend their right to wear their uniform freely on British streets and have instead cowered to anti-British forces.”
“A multicultural society simply imports the grievances and bigotries of the rest of the world onto our streets.”
