Proceeding contribution from Paul Flynn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Libya and the Middle East.
Libya and the Middle East
Does the Foreign Secretary recall the day when Minister Michael Heseltine, clad in a camouflage jacket and accompanied by 1,500 soldiers and police, arrived at Molesworth peace camp by helicopter in order to evict 17 peace campaigners and a goat? Is it not true of the Government that our brave British soldiers—our brave British lions—are still led by Tory Ministers who have overdosed on James Bond?
