Proceeding contribution from Gavin Strang (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 May 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq (Basra Incident).
Iraq (Basra Incident)
I add my congratulations to those given to my right hon. Friend at this sombre time, when we have lost five more dedicated service personnel. Accepting, as my right hon. Friend said, that more information is coming in on the confrontation that took place after the helicopter came down, is it none the less the case that two Iraqi youths were shot? If so, should we be concerned about the effect those deaths might have on the attitude of the local population to the British forces?
