Waterloo - the Government air brushes our European Allies from history

The Government has decided to waste our money, during a time of austerity, on minting and giving away 500,000 Waterloo replica medals. Done at a time when the NHS is collapsing, our schools are declining, and National Debt has spiralled out of control under George Osborne.

I wonder if they will they mention on the medal that the winning side was an alliance of British troops and a Prussian Army commanded by Gebhard von Blücher? Von Blucher troops had been defeated by Napoleon only 2 days earlier, but managed to regroup and march to Waterloo - Wellington decided only then to join them in the battle that this medal commemorates. The other allies were Russia, Austria, Spain, Portugal, The Netherlands, various German States, Sweden and Switzerland

I doubt if Cameron will recognise or mention the Allies who fought with Wellington - his spin doctors have decided to air brush all these nasty Europeans out of our history.
