Report of the Iraq Inquiry

Proceeding contribution from Julian Lewis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 14 July 2016. It occurred during Debate on Report of the Iraq Inquiry.

I am saying that I was absolutely right not to vote to remove Assad in 2013 and absolutely wrong to vote as I did in 2003, but that I did so because I believed what I was told about weapons of mass destruction and also believed—wrongly—that there was a chance for Iraqi society to advance along more democratic lines. That was my terrible error.
