With respect, I haven't really voiced an opinon about the motion itself...
or the rights and wrongs of it. The UK is in a no win situation whatever we do, and I honestly don't know what I would do.
All I have pointed out is that last nights House of Commons motion did not sanction or approve British military intervention.... that would have required another vote, whatever the result had been last night.
And secondly Milliband has been a blatant opportunist and now wants to paint himself and his party as having saved the UK from going to war, which is not correct.
