UK conducted 6% of air strikes against ISIS

Britain must play a greater role in fighting Islamic State in Iraq, say MPs | World news | The Guardian


Pretty good even report by the Guardian defence journo, about the release of a report yesterday by the H of C Defence Select Committee. (4th February 2015)
The Guardians take is that the MPs are highly dis-satisfied with the UKs response, I think specifically in Iraq.
In a nutshell, I think they want more action (that's the military of course, not themselves..).against ISIS.
I cant find the report itself will try and post it up.
RAF contributed to 6% of something, whether this is bombs dropped, sorties or what I don't know.
But they were scathing, according to the Grad.
Words fail me (again). Will try and find the report.
