Deputy Prime Minister Admits: "Iraq War Illegal"

Well done Nick Clegg! At least some have the guts to stick to their values.

This incident proves nothing about the govt positon on the Liberation of Iraq.

Case in point, he Coalition immediately clarified that Clegg was speaking in his own capacity rather than as Deputy PM. They also stated that an ongoing enquiry was looking at the legal aspectsd of the war in Iraq.

This incident just shows how immature and unfit for office the Lib Dems are. Clegg also made a gaffe about the Home Office and detention at Yarlswood detention centre. This matter was also later clarified.

He is unlikely to be given annother opportubnity at PMQ's in the near future due to his poor performance.

The Lib Dems are finished as a political force due to their betrayal in joining a Conservative govt which is cutting jobs and services and hitting the working man with particularly severe cuts. Their own party members are deserting them. Ppl didn't vote Lib Dem to get a Tory govt!!!

Only those blinded by Islamic identity politics like MPACUK members/associates cannot see this. As recent elections prove; nobody cares about 'Islamic issues' when the economic situation is as it is.

He should be the MP - He would have been mauled in Labour/Conservatives - glad he is deputy pm .

We all know the liberal democrats were against the war because it was illegal ,the U.N secretary Kofi Annan said the same.
but what is need is for Bush-Blair-Brown and countless other war criminals to be face justice saddam style.
that will never happen because it is losers who get lynched not winners, right-justice or morality is just a slogan.

I believe that had they received the majority vote instead of Conservatives then they would indeed have been in a position to
implement the PR voting system which is the only voting system near to proper democracy as the others have a twist and turn built into favour the bigger parties only. Had the population understood this they could then have believed in the realistic chances of other parties getting a chance to get anywhere for a real change.

Also the LIb DEM manifesto was the most fairest socially but unfortunately they had to compromise because the public did not vote for their more people friendly policies.
