ISIS really aren't going to start targeting the UK and its citizens because we start bombing Syria. They're already targeting the UK and its citizens. There have been numerous attacks planned (and fortunately prevented by our security forces) already and it's only a matter of time before one or maybe several succeed. Be under no illusions that this will continue whatever we do so the notion that we'll be safe if we avoid taking this action is IMHO fatally flawed.

Lot's of noise being made about Cameron's 'terrorist sympathisers' remark with some Labour MP's apparently claiming it will change how they vote. Well as annoyed as they might be, which I can understand, surely no insult should change what I'm sure they'll all want to claim is a vote based on conviction. As much as this is a blunder by the PM, those who publicly change the way they vote because of it will ,IMHO, be making an even bigger one and allowing personal feelings of anger to cloud their judgement.
