BLAIR LEGACY WILL FOREVER BE ILLEGAL IRAQ WAR
ANGUS ROBERTSON COMMENTS ON CHILCOT EVIDENCE
Commenting on the evidence by Former Prime Minister Tony Blair to the Chilcot Inquiry, SNP Westminster Leader and Defence Spokesperson, Angus Robertson MP said:
“No matter how skilfully he ducked and dived today, Tony Blair’s legacy will forever be that of the illegal, immoral Iraq war.
“Chillingly, the ex-Prime Minister showed no regret for his dubious decisions which led us into the worst foreign policy disaster in modern times.
“He directly contradicted the statements of senior officials and politicians who have already given evidence to Sir John Chilcot.
“The Iraq Inquiry has been massively damaging for Labour. Those who lead should not mislead and the lies Labour told have been laid bare today.
“For all of those who opposed the Iraq invasion and for the thousands who lost their lives to it, the sad fact is that the real reasons behind it will probably never been known.
“The truth of the Iraq invasion has been forever lost to the New Labour spin machine.”
