WE are all aware of the facts leading up to the invasion of Iraq. We have now lost 68 of our finest sons.

It is quite clear from opinion polls the public believe that someone, somewhere as the politicians say was economical with the truth. I personally, prefer, led up the garden path. The Government appears to have lost the trust of the nation on this matter.

If, in the near future, the Prime Minister informs us a country in the Middle East has obtained an active nuclear weapon and seeks a mandate to invade that country from Parliament, it is highly likely, because of public opinion about Iraq, Parliament would say no.

What if the Prime Minister was correct and, because of lack of response, the nuclear weapon was launched and there was retaliation?

Get ready for World War Three, there won't be a fourth.
