I'm sure this has been mentioned before, but take a look at http://www.publicwhip.org.uk/mp.php?mpn=Keith_Bradley&mpc=Manchester%2C+Withington Votes 117 and 118: Iraq - Declaration of war, and the amendmendment, Keith Bradley rebelled against the government and voted against. If you speak to Keith, he will tell you that his position was quite clear (and infact the same as the Lib Dems) that he would support a war with UN backing, so he voted for the war until the UN didn't pass a second amendment and then voted against it. So there we go - quite clear on his position. In the Lib Dem campaign, people either said that Keith Bradley voted for the war (which clearly isn't true if you look at the voting record), or was unsure about the war - I think it's obvious that it would be a moral dilemma, but at the end of the day you only vote once to send your troops to war and Keith Bradley voted against. I hope that clears things up for you Tim.
