The photograph above of the House of Commons today is taken during the Debate ''Defence of the UK''.
For sure it the debate was held on Thursday afternoon, which is always difficult for MPs who have onerous constituency commitments (and local elections to fight). But it cannot help but send a message to the world at large (and indeed our over stretched troops in Afghanistan and Iraq) about the priority afforded to defence issues by our elected representatives.
