    ...actually I'm surprised in a way that David Geffen is the type to have a multimillion pound luxury yacht in which he likes to luxuriate whilst entertaining the likes of Blair. Thought he was some kind of hippy...
    Yep, but like most 60s hippies he rather likes money and power.

      Refreshingly honest ans surprisingly sensible comment from a Labour MP who basically admits to not knowing what's the right thing to do in this mess.

          He could save himself a lot of agonising and indecision by remembering one simple principle:

          Attacking Syria is the right thing for the UK to do if the Yanks decide to, but not otherwise.
