Proceeding contribution from Ann Clwyd (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 15 June 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Iraq.
Iraq
As one who supported the Iraq war, I did so on human rights grounds. I saw no secret material and had no private briefing, but I had a 30-year involvement with the Iraqi opposition. I personally would want assurances from the inquiry as to why, prior the war, this country failed to indict leading members of the Iraqi regime when we had the legal evidence to enable us to do so.
