So, evidence that the establishment here in the UK is starting to sense that public opinion over Afghanistan is changing, no other than 'er majesty has awarded a bit of metal called grandly the " Elizabeth cross " to the widow of Shaun Upton, in recognition of his sacrifice ( blown up in Afghanistan ).
