Nick Clegg and the illegal war in Iraq comment at PMQs

Like most people I was so chuffed that Nick Clegg took David Cameron's place for Prime Ministers Questions last week.

I also loved the complete overreaction to Nick's comments about the "illegal war in Iraq".  The media went absolutely bonkers and the Civil Servants seemed to be as crazy too.
The Civil Servants really need to start accepting that a Coalition Government is not the same old style of Government that they are used to and they need to start chilling out a little bit.

It was quite obvious to anyone outside the slightly odd world of Westminster that what I was doing was repeating something about which I have strong personal views in a way that wasn’t binding on the government as a whole.
