Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Corbyn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 22 May 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Armed Forces Bill.


Armed Forces Bill

I was interested in my hon. Friend’s point about legality. If, for example, someone had deserted in the run-up to the invasion of Iraq, when, clearly, there was no UN approval, no direct threat to this country and, therefore, no legal state of war, would it be correct to discipline that person?
