Proceeding contribution from Gerald Howarth (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 2 February 2017. It occurred during Backbench debate on Armed Forces Covenant.
Armed Forces Covenant
I entirely agree. I felt at the time that that man Phil Shiner was a disgrace. He was a dreadful man engaged in the cowardly and unacceptable activity of trying to find people to stand up and accuse their fellow countrymen who had gone to relieve the people of Iraq from their suffering. He tried to do down those people and I am very pleased to hear today that he has been struck off. Frankly, I do not think that that is enough; but then I always was a supporter of capital punishment.
