House of Commons Backs Blair on Iraq
(AP/FOX News) - Britain's House of Commons backed Prime Minister Tony Blair's Iraq policy on Tuesday. Lawmakers voted 412 to 149 to use "all means necessary" for disarming Iraq. Before that, they voted 396 to 217 to defeat an amendment by Labour rebels that declared the case for war "has not yet been established." Blair has the support of the opposition Conservative Party as well as many Labour lawmakers. There also have been signs of growing nationalism in Britain in support of the British troops massed in the Persian Gulf.
