Proceeding contribution from Keith Simpson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 25 March 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Iraq Inquiry.


Iraq Inquiry

I am grateful to the Minister, a member of the parliamentary breakfast club. I thank him very much, because he has just proved my point. The campaign in Mesopotamia went on from late 1914 all the way through until 1918. The report looked into the disasters that took place in Mesopotamia, sadly, before the end of 1916, so that lessons could be drawn and learned for the future campaign. Game, set and match; thank you, Minister.
