Proceeding contribution from Lord Browne of Ladyton (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 May 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq (Basra Incident).


Iraq (Basra Incident)

I agree, and I am all too acutely aware—as are those who lead our armed forces—that there is a constant tension between being seen in a positive light and getting to the stage where that becomes a difficulty. It is the very appreciation of that tension that has instructed the way in which we approach the whole issue of transition.
