Labour MP's Who Backed The Invasion Of Iraq

A bit 'unfashionable' to remind people of this at a time when the Labour Party is making laughable attempts to recover any moral and ethical standing it once had. The full list of shame is here. Most of them are still in their jobs. But a few names stick out in the obtrusive and hard-to-clear fashion of a gas leak. Step forward:
Gordon Brown (no comment)
Stephen Byers ('taxi for hire')
Peter Mandelson(no comment)
Elliott Morley(now in jail for expenses fiddle)
Phil Woolas (disqualified for illegal electioneering - smearing opponent as Muslim extremist)
Jacqui Smith (good estate agent and Porn reviewer)
John Prescott (bruiser on the make)
Geoff Hoon ('taxi for hire')
Patricia Hewitt ('taxi for hire')
Fiona Jones (expenses bandit, parliamentary slut - died of alcoholism in 2007)
Ann Keen(claimed £1.7M expenses in 7 years, lost seat as a result in 2010)
Alan Keen (married to Ann Keen and shared in the fraud. Died 2011)
Hazel Blears (How many houses now, Hazel?)
Beverly Hughes (Stood down due to expenses scandal)
Louise Ellman (Labour Friends of Israel all of  whom voted for the invasion)
Barbara Follett (£42,458.21 owed in over-claimed expenses)
Dennis MacShane (Labour Friends of Israel and fraudster)
Margaret Moran (stood down - faced 21 criminal charges).
Clive Betts - Employs partner and former rent-boy as Parliamentary Assistant. 
And many more.
The 'let's move on' brigade within what remains of New Labour have the luxury to say let's move on. Millions of Iraqis, unless you count the 2 million displaced, don't have that luxury.
