Proceeding contribution from Lord Walney (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 February 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Afghanistan.


Afghanistan

The Secretary of State has made it clear today that troops ““may”” begin to be withdrawn this year, depending on the conditions. However, the Prime Minister has previously stated that troops will begin to be withdrawn this year. Did the Prime Minister inadvertently mis-speak, or has the position changed?
