Proceeding contribution from David Winnick (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 December 2006. It occurred during Urgent question on Iraq.
Iraq
Does my right hon. Friend accept that public support for the policy on Iraq is draining away simply because the elected Government there—and there is no question but that they are elected—seem totally impotent to stop the daily mass slaughter of totally innocent people? It is clear that the occupation troops in Baghdad cannot prevent that slaughter either, so does he agree that, in those circumstances, the loss of public support is hardly surprising?
