A FORMER soldier will today hand back his military medals to Prime Minister David Cameron in protest at Britain's continuing involvement in the war in Afghanistan.

Joe Glenton, who served six months in a military jail after refusing to return to Afghanistan for a second tour, will hand over his medals to 10 Downing Street at about 1pm.

He will be joined by relatives of other soldiers who are members of the Military Families Against The War campaign group.

Glenton was a Lance Corporal with 4 Logistic Support Regiment, Royal Logistic Corps, based at Dalton Barracks, in Abingdon.

He now studies at Leeds Metropolitan University.
