Annette, I never "asked" the armed forces to go to Iraq. From the first moments of the Axis of Evil speech, I was against Britain sending armed forces to a country that did not need to be occupied by another countries forces. I was one of the many millions from across the globe that went on a peaceful march to demonstrate. So please do not make assumptions that all British people asked the armed services to go to war. That is why John Leech is now our MP. Not over the threat (real or otherwise) of Christies closing down, but because Labour took us to war. I do feel sorry for Keith Bradley, as I know his stance, but he should of stood as an independent if he didn't like so many of Labour's policies (I was in agreement with many of his ideas, shame I didn't agree with his parties!)
