Would be different if someone important died!
Or London was bloody attacked.... Hate goody two shoes...they need to out of their cotton wool and look at whats happening!!!!!!
Damn that democracy.... It's quite right that the house should vote on Syria action.
I still don't agree it's a solution. Retaliating to someone that bombs your country, by bombing their country... it's just going to end up in an endless loop, until thousands of innocent lives are lost. We've already got Blair with blood on his hands, and we could well do without another PM in the same situation.

We are currently operating against IS in Iraq, I think the government should start to explore the possibility of extending strikes within Syrian Territory...
They are currently on the backfoot at the moment, losing territory all over the place, Sinjar, Kobane gone.
1 rash decision now would be a huge mistake
Yes - it's quite right that the elected house makes the decision. I may not agree with it, but at least it's a democratic decision.
