Newsnight debate

A small plug: Newsnight, from the Labour conference, conducts its own debate tonight on Iraq. I'm one of the participants, with Mike Gapes MP, Bob Marshall-Andrews MP and the comedian Mark Steel. Gapes and I argue that the decision to intervene was right. Marshall-Andrews is a prominent critic of the war and of the Blair government. Steel is a longstanding member of the Socialist Workers' Party, and thus in no sense an anti-war campaigner: he is a supporter of the war effort of the other side.

UPDATE: You can see our debate (an edited version of it) here.
