ChilCot Enquiry

Wow didnt think he would go as far as he did

See blair on TV now at press conference almost in tears. got no pity for him got blood on his hands

So have those who voted for it, eg Angela Eagle & IDS & so on.

Yes you can say what you like about Blair, but Parliament got to vote on it.

based on dodgy info that he knew to be not to be the truth and with legal advice that was changed at the last minute after attorny general had made a trip to Washington.

it is a question of hindsight but the most damming part was the bit about undermining the United Nations

the problem is that not only screwed up iraq but also had the bearing on Syria when Assad did have chemical weapons and used them we didnt intervene which led ISIS being created

So it took 7 years to produce that

'Tory Bliar' had a large majority, as well as support from the majority of Tories, all the DUP & UUP, which meant that despite 138 Labour 'rebels', all of the Lib Dems, SNP & Plaid Cymru voting against, he was able to impose his will with ease!

On the other side of the pond, Hillary Clinton voted for it too; then again, a number of commentators have pointed out that 'she has not yet met a war that she didn't like!' alluding to her right-wing, neocon tendencies.
