Commenting on David Miliband’s appearance before the Chilcot Inquiry, Edward Davey said:

“David Miliband and Gordon Brown are on a PR offensive to rewrite the history of the Iraq War.

“The idea that the UK upheld international law by invading Iraq is pure Labour doublespeak.

“Iraq diminished our standing in the Middle East and the wider world and divided us from our natural allies.

“Nobody will listen to Labour when it comes to restoring Britain’s reputation abroad.”
