Iâ€™m fairly certain the British Armed Forces played a role in destroying Iraq as well?

Not even close to the Americans though.

Guy, agreed.

Zohra, very true. And thanks for the link. You’re a mine of government announcements, heh

Great idea Sunny. After watching a Newsnight feature the other day on the plight of Iraqi refugees, who may now be turned away from Syria, I would go further and suggest that the UK and US have a moral responsibility to either accept refugees or provide aid and support to their host countries. So far the Syrians have received next to nothing for the large amount of Iraqis they have had to absorb…

“But it saves lives and gives some Iraqis the opportunity of a better life here while we try and re-build that country after the American military destroyed it.”

I’m fairly certain the British Armed Forces played a role in destroying Iraq as well?

Think this is a great thing, that bloggers are entering the physical world of politics. Sometimes action does speak louder than words.

Can be too easy (and is a luxury for some) to sit and ponder and write into internet ether and never actually speak to an MP about how and why they’re making particular decisions – which ultimately is what affects people’s lives.

In other migration news, the Home Secretary has announced the new Chair of the Migration Advisory Committee: http://www.gnn.gov.uk/Content/Detail.asp?ReleaseID=313685&NewsAreaID=2. This will be the person helping to decide which migrants/immigrants are worthy and which aren’t, so an important one to keep an eye on.

Actually thinking about it might be able to get a film crew from said project there to do some interviews…hmmm.

Typical that’s the day I’m launching a new project in the House of Commons too, literally an hour before…might pop along if possible to this after. Sunny, what are the plans for after, anyone going to the Red Lion?
