Proceeding contribution from Neil Gerrard (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 May 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Armed Conflict (Parliamentary Approval).
Armed Conflict (Parliamentary Approval)
Does my hon. Friend accept that Iraq is the example of a war where intelligence, or decisions about intelligence, mattered, but that over the past 10 years that has been the exception rather than the rule? Does he also agree that given the experience of Iraq, it will be incredibly difficult for anybody again to persuade people in this House to support a war purely on the basis of supposed intelligence?
