I SEE that just before Christmas Paul Flynn has been in your newspaper.
He says, and I agree, that the invasion of Iraq was a blunder and so was the invasion of Afghanistan.
Russia bankrupted themselves by waging war in Afghanistan.
If the then Government had held a referendum on whether to invade these countries, the voters, with their greater perception of what the result of invasion would be, would have voted against it.
It was obvious to everyone except the blinkered politicians that the result would be many dead British military.
Paul Flynn stated that the result is a chaotic Middle East - which it is, but it has resulted in an uprising of suicide bombers and terrorists killing innocent people including women and children.
He also claims Theresa May is delusional to think that “Brexit” will happen.
Paul Flynn is delusional to think it will not.
We want out.
