This chasm is at its widest on the question of war and peace. Tony Blair's New Labour has taken us to war five times in the last six years, each time with calamitous consequences, such as the removal of Slobodan Milosevic, the Taliban government, and Saddam Hussein, along with the humanitarian disasters which accompanied them. The bloodshed, the waste of precious economic resources, the lying and hypocrisy that have accompanied the attack on Iraq have brought many to the conclusion that they must rethink their traditional political allegiance, from one of supporting democratically elected governments to that of supporting murderous tyrants, dictators, and nutcase theocracies.
Indeed. How can I not respect the Respect Coalition
