Well, good for Clare i suppose. Though am i the only one who finds it sad to think that after all NuLabour has done - the privatisation programme and the wholesale shift to the right (along with all it entails) - it takes the threat of the government launching a pre-emptive war on another nation (at the behest of an ultra-right-wing Republican president who has made a policy of unilateralism) in order to prick Clare's conscience.
