Before Hilton Dawson's New Labour Party lead us into a war with dire consequences, I would like him to answer the following....

If politicians have knowledge of Iraqi weapons, why won't they pass this information onto UN weapons inspectors to enable them to verify such claims?

Does Hilton Dawson feel it was appropriate for the US to take the Iraqi weapons declaration for itself and give other countries an edited version?

Does Hilton realise that Saddam Hussein is a secular dictator who has spent his time in power smashing Islamic fundamentalism in Iraq?

Does Hilton realise that the planned US/UK assault on Iraq will bring death and destruction to thousands of innocent civilians and will do nothing to prevent terrorist attacks?

Why does Hilton draw our attention to the Iraqi Governments' repression of Kurds yet ignore the same policy from our allies in Turkey?

Finally, how well does he sleep at night kno-wing he is part of a Government that is about to embark on a war that will bring untold misery?
