Iraq Breaks a Record

It is sad to read that Iraq, the country that was "saved" from dictatorship by the Iraq war, has broken a record.

Today it will have spent 208 days, since its general election, still trying to form a government (without any success).

That is a world record!

You Voted For It!

Kudos to David Miliband for admonishing Harriet Harmon for clapping Ed Miliband's "rejection" of the Iraq war.

As David said to Harmon:

"Why are you clapping?

You voted for it".

Ex Cabinet members cannot wiggle out of collective responsibility for the war so easily.
