www.veteranstoday.com An open letter to my MP, Rt Hon Alister Jack, Secretary of State for Scotland
Dear Mr Jack,
Have I missed something, or is our Government investing £billions of our money in a belligerent campaign against the world’s largest country — and in the process putting us all in harm’s way — without even a vote in Parliament?
Yes, the House of Commons “considered the situation in Ukraine” back in March when MPs were hot under the collar from the half-truths and one-sided reports they were fed. On that occasion the minister, James Cleverly, called Russia’s intervention an unprovoked attack and told the House: “We will continue to provide lethal military aid to Ukraine.” Is he aware that Ukraine is a world-leading hotbed for arms smuggling and the weapons the West supplies may well end up in the wrong hands?
And now that our sanctions against Russia have spectacularly backfired, what is Parliament’s present mood?
