Just because it doesn't suit your narrative does not mean those who voted for it should be absolved of responsibility, does it?

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

If they voted on the basis of lies and falsified "evidence" like dodgy dossiers then that releaves them of some of the responsibility. Nes Pa?

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

Yes I'd agree, people can only vote on the facts presented, if those facts are false... the blame goes on whoever prepared those facts and the director behind that, not the people who voted.

So the people that supported him are absolved of all responsibility and have no blood on their hands, how convenient for them

What about when those facts are so blatantly false a million people take to the streets, to my mind those mps you mention are either incompetent or in on it

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

Given the fact that very considerable numbers of the public knew it was a load of lies and were very vocal about the fact then ignorance is no defence as far as voting politicians are concerned.

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

because it will show that politicians are all telling lies !

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

Everybody already knows that, I think is terrible that they can do just because it could hurt one of the parties, it should be released before we elect a new party because we will kick outrselves if the report comes out and it outlines the wrong doing by the party we have just elected

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

Actually i agree that the report should not be released so close to a general election .The general election is about what the various parties are going to do in the next 5 yrs not what they did 10 yrs ago and mostly with different leaders in charge .It would be very unfair to the current leaders of the labour party to release the report at this time

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

do you mean leaders like Yvette Cooper, Rosie Winterton, Vernon Coaker,who were members of the Labour Government in 2003 and are now in the Labour Shadow Cabinet?

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

No, i mean the members who had nothing to do with that period ,also lets not forget that most of the decisions where based on false information put forward by Blair .Of course the report should be published ,indeed it really should have been published long before now but releasing it now would not be in the countries best interest with a general election looming

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

could someone lift the corner of the carpet while the truth is swept under it until its convenient to bring it out ;)

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

Nobodies suggesting the truth is swept under a carpet ,it should have been revealed a long time ago but at this critical time for our country is tearing it apart with revalations of lies and cover ups really a good idea ,after all we all know that Blair embelished the truth but Blair isn't standing in the general election and i'm sure that most peoples priority in the coming 100 days is who will give us the best government not the results of the Chilcot report

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

the truth is always a good idea even if it is inconvenient .

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

Not denying that

Re: Chilcot report on Iraq war delayed until after general election.
 

just trying to justify suppressing it due to the election
