I AM increasingly concerned about this country’s involvement in Libya.
I believe the military intervention is ill-thought out, unjustified and unprepared.
The war coalition has no coherent strategy for North Africa and the Middle East, and is walking into a chaotic situation about which it knows little.
It is rash, to say the least, for ill-equipped soldiers and airmen of this country to be led into an open-ended commitment which frighteningly reminds us of Afghanistan.
There is no exit strategy or even clear objectives in this war. We have rushed headfirst into Libya, but where does it stop? Should we also go into Yemen, Bahrain and then Syria? Paul Nuttall, UK Independence Party North West MEP
