Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:46 pm on 17 April 2018.

'So for me it’s not a question of bombing in Iraq and then bombing in Syria—I don’t see much of a difference.'
Those were the complacent words of the First Minister when the prospect of British bombs being dropped on Syria first arose back in 2015. He supported bombing campaigns in Syria then, and he supports them now. Yesterday, the First Minister's London Labour boss questioned the legality, the morality and the effectiveness of the strikes. Does the First Minister harbour the same concerns, or does he stand by his comments in support for the Prime Minister and her air strikes in the British national interest?
