The second motion never happened because they got the message that a majority in Britain didn't want further war-fighting. Pain in the arse that I am, I actually e-mailed my own MP and asked him to vote against any move towards further fighting. Like this below;


" that this may, if necessary, require military action that is legal, proportionate and focused on saving lives by preventing and deterring further use of Syria’s chemical weapons".


That bit above I just cut out of the motion.
Our military is now just too small to bring and effective change to anything.
Our Governments pre and post General elections are totally out of their depth.

Anti ISIL strikes shore up Assad's regime - the regime we were trying to attack not long ago. Our policies aren't thought through and they aren't consistent.
The Govt. are stuffed full of rich thickie's and I am afraid at this level they are out of their experience and depth.
