Proceeding contribution from Lord Beamish (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 March 2006. It occurred during Estimates day on Ministry of Defence.


Ministry of Defence

I have had previous discussions with the hon. Gentleman about his views on Iraq. Had he not already written an article for a national newspaper outlining all that he has said in the debate before he set foot in Iraq in 2004? Is not it true that his comments are not based on what he has seen on the ground but his prejudices, which existed before he went? The newspaper article appeared on the Wednesday that we were in Iraq.
