Proceeding contribution from Mike Penning (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 February 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on United States of America.
United States of America
Does my hon. Friend agree that the American and British frustration is that so many European countries that say that they will support our troops in conflict, physically do not? They will go out to places such as Kandahar, but very rarely will leave the bases, whereas British and American troops are on the front line. So many countries that talk the talk do not put up the troops to take part in the action.
