Ah yes, I remember the extraordinary outcry against joining the US-led coalition from the Tories. It was deafening.
Thats because Blair had seen evidence of WMD.
But it was just good old Labour lies 
Or was it Thatcher 
Or was it more that the Tories are never going to (a) pass up a chance to gear up for war, (b) challenge our "special relationship" with the U.S. (particularly when there's a Republican in the White House), (c) reject quasi-Imperialist foreign policy which allows Britannia to pretend to be Great once more, and (d) avoid the bashing of Johnny Foreigner (especially them darkie types).
What the fuck were the Conservatives doing believing anything Blair said anyway? Their job is to be the fucking opposition, after all. But, of course, now they can bleat about how they were "lied to", just like the rest of us ordinary folk.
You're talking bollocks. The situation regarding British troops in the Middle East would be exactly the same even if the Tories had been in power for the last decade. Still, I'm looking forward to an immediate withdrawal of the British presence in Iraq and Afghanistan within months of Cameron entering Number 10.
Oh, hang on.......he's just going to give the soldiers better helmets and extra copies of "Razzle", isn't he?

Oh , by the way Dave said this today -
Frankly, time is short," Mr Cameron said in his keynote speech on the final day of the Manchester conference.
"We cannot spend another eight years taking ground only to give it back again.
"So our method should be clear - send more soldiers to train more Afghans to deliver the security we need. Then we can bring our troops home."
Amid widespread alarm in the country at the rapid rise in British losses this summer, Mr Cameron pledged a "ruthless, relentless focus on fighting, winning and coming home".
And he promised to ensure that UK service personnel were provided with "every piece of equipment they need" to accomplish the task at hand.
