Chappie,

You are being very brave - don't stop.
Sadly, I don't believe for a minute that our politicians will have enough courage to 'come clean', nor to look the families in the eye while giving an honest answer. This is basically because most of the reasons for us being 'over there' are being shown to be highly dubious, if not illegal.

Unlikely though honesty from TB etc is, we should, however, keep giving them the opportunities to do so, whilst also keeping up the pressure on them - as you did very well yesterday - with dignity and honest passion. Sooner or later, they will have to face facts that we hold them ultimately responsible - morally, if not legally and 'payment' is long overdue. The longer they insist in stone-walling you, the more ridiculous they will appear.

But we can't really expect them to admit to anything while the legal-vultures are circling - I like MarkD's idea, tho.

May the force be with you,

Flip
