    OK. Let's juat say that the opposition to the war in parliament came from a the hamdful of Labour MPs, Corbyn being one of them.

    He was duped by the Americans and MI6. Read Gordon Brown's book.

    They would have, that's why it was called a "special relationship". Churchill, Thatcher, Major all did whatever the Americans wanted militarily. The first time we didn't was Syria in 2013.

    Don't know where TB gets his 91% figure from. Watched a programme on Wednesday morning
    re-23rd. Leading virologist claimed first jab would give around 57% immunity with follow up shot
    boosting that to around 95%. Wharever the true figures are, he said that it made sense to give
    as many vulnerable people as possible the first shot from the current stocks that we hold.

    It's something to do with the fact that immunity builds slowly after having the jab and the 57% is for shortly after the first jab with 91% reached a day or so after the second jab but if it takes a while to get into your system then the 91% must be still down to the first jab as the second isn't doing anything yet.

    When people voted Blair they didn't vote a tory so poor argument that its just the same as "but corbyn". Alot of innocent lives lost over a war that shouldn't have happened and were still feeling the effects of it.

    You really shouldn’t keep repeating misleading figures.

    The case fatality rate in the United Kingdom is around 3.2% so a 96.8% survival rate.
