Parliamentary process

A Plaid Cymru MP has been thrown out of the House of Commons after claiming that Tony Blair had "misled" Parliament over the Iraq war.

Isn’t that a quaint piece of English tradition? It’s OK for Tony B to actually tell lies to parliament as he has done repeatedly over the last few years when justifying his illegal war in Iraq. But it’s wrong to point out that he is telling lies. Nice to see the tradition of free speech alive and well in the mother of parliaments.

Adam Price, the MP involved is one of the leading figures in Impeach Blair. He commissioned the report A Case to Answer which is a good read if you care a jot about our leaders being accountable for their words and deeds. And you should care.
