IS air strikes: 'Do not bomb Iraq again' - Galloway

The Respect MP George Galloway has derided David Cameron's plans to bomb Islamic State (IS) in Iraq.

Speaking in the House of Commons, Mr Galloway said air strikes would not solve the problem and blamed extremism on the UK's invasion of Iraq in 2003.

"There was no Islamism fundamentalism in Iraq before Mr Blair... and Mr Bush invaded and occupied," he told the speaker during the debate to decide whether to launch airstrikes targeting IS militants.
