Britain on the brink of war
MPs vote to unleash another Middle Eastern catastrophe
BRITAIN has been told to brace for civilian casualties, radicalisation and rising numbers of refugees after MPs backed air strikes in Syria last night despite growing public opposition.
Prime Minister David Cameron dragged Britain into a fourth disastrous military intervention in 15 years with the help of Lib Dem and Labour hawks.
His emergency motion to extend British air strikes from Iraq to Syria garnered the support of 397 MPs — 67 of them Labour — while 223 voted No.
