Proceeding contribution from Boris Johnson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 May 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq (Basra Incident).


Iraq (Basra Incident)

In paying tribute to the sacrifice of the Lynx crew, two of whom came from RAF Benson in my constituency, I wish to ask the Secretary of State whether he agrees that the risks to British forces seem to have increased considerably in the past year. If he does agree, could he give a political analysis of why that might be the case and what we can do about it?
