Of Scales Falling From Eyes

I am unperturbed that several Tory MPs who voted against war, abstained, or did not turn up had enjoyed the hospitality of President Assad in Damascus.

This means that they had been to Syria, they knew what they were talking about, and they therefore voted against war, abstained, or did not turn up.

Well, of course they did. They had been to Syria, so they knew what they were talking about.

If the UN Security Council does vote after all for military intervention in Syria, then the United Kingdom, as a Permanent Member, must veto that Resolution, even if Russia did not. The House of Commons must insist upon that.

Ed Miliband, over to you.

  1. Russia is absolutely right to call Britain a little island nobody cares about.

    After 13 years of Labour Government, that is all we are.

    The last time we ever fought for British interests was the Falklands War under Thatcher.

    In just 13 years, Blair surrendered Northern Ireland to the IRA, surrendered our foreign policy to George Bush, surrendered our Constitution to the EU and was negotiating to surrender Gibraltar to the Spanish.

    Until its people rather inconveniently held a referendum.

    After 13 years of Labour treachery, we are hardly worth anyone's attention.
