This sums it all up for me....
All the business has been cleared from today’s agenda in the House of Commons and the whole day which has been extended to 10pm will consist of a single debate on the motion set out in my last post. This will give 10 and a half hours of time for debate.
Not surprisingly I have received hundreds of emails urging me to vote against military action. It is clear from most of them that the senders appear not t have a full understanding of the situation in the middle east. the situation is extremely complex. I do not pretend that extending our military action across the border from Iraq to Syria will be a solution on its own to the threat from ISIL but it will, in my opinion, on balance, help defeat ISIL and I will vote for it. I should add that I have add some constituents urge me to vote for the motion.
Basically, vote as the PM says and ignore the people you are supposed to represent....
...because that worked so well in Iraq didn't it...?
