Proceeding contribution from Crispin Blunt (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 October 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq and Afghanistan Update.

Iraq and Afghanistan Update

Is not the truth of the matter that artillery and Apache helicopters are rather limited in their abilities as regards reconstruction, that the military operation has been wholly unaccompanied by an equivalent level of reconstruction, and that as a result the past six months of British efforts in Afghanistan have made worse, not better, the situation with regard to support for the foreign military intervention from the local peasant farmers whom we are trying to help?
