Parliament needs power to scrutinise special forces, committee warns

MORE scrutiny over British special forces and drones should be given to MPs, a parliamentary committee is warning today.
The call comes days after the Morning Star revealed how SAS Sergeant Matt Tonroe, the only British soldier to die fighting Isis in Syria, was killed by friendly fire.
MPs currently have no oversight of special forces raids and the government refused to answer a question in Parliament about Sgt Tonroe’s death.
