Proceeding contribution from Lord Bramall (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 1 May 2007. It occurred during Debate on select committee report on Parliament: Waging War (Constitution Committee Report).
Parliament: Waging War (Constitution Committee Report)
My Lords, in case the noble and learned Lord thinks that I have no military experience, I was the Chief of the General Staff during the time of the Falklands, so perhaps that balances with the experience of others. However, that is not my point, and I apologise for interrupting. The Minister said that this is not the right way to make a change because it would create problems. Does he not agree that the way we went to war under this Government has produced infinite problems, and therefore one should be encouraged to look at a different way?
