Afghanistan Legacy

EDM number 1114 in 2012-13, proposed by Paul Flynn on 26/02/2013.
Categorised under the topics of Afghanistan and Police.

That this House is saddened by Panorama's account of the legacy of the UK's sacrifices in Afghanistan that revealed the Afghan police as an ill-disciplined, drug addicted force practising endemic child abuse, corruption, kidnapping, murder and the looting of equipment paid for by British taxpayers; is distressed to hear of the absence of remorse following the murder of three boys killed when attempting to escape from police abuse; and recalls that 440 British soldiers died attempting to improve life in Afghanistan.

This motion has been signed by a total of 14 MPs.
