Interesting debate. I have never been a Labour Party supporter. However, I feel I must agree with JC & some of his MP's, that the UK's now decided bombing of Daesh, will not have a huge impact, compared to that of our Allies. And we should consider alternatives. However, there are times when your head tells one thing and your heart tells you another.
I listened to some of the debate in the HoC, before our MP's voted. I have to say I was swayed by both sides of the argument. Ultimately, I think we must do something, not leased that the 'Security Council unanimously calls on member nations to fight Daesh', and France asks the UK to join the fight, and we can't give Daesh the oxygen of our reservation to fight them and support our Allies.
I think Hilary Benn's speech gave a good reasoning to support our Allies;
