I went on an anti-Iraq war demonstration in February 1998 and as I recall Tony Benn was the only politician who turned up. I may just not have recognised other politicians who may have been there, though. He stood on something, possibly a soapbox, and spoke to a small crowd. It was already perfectly clear even then that they were going to attack Iraq at some point.

Good speech, serendipitous for Corbyn to be one of the few people in the background.
Emailed my (Tory) MP last night with the boilerplate from stop the war ( http://act.stopwar.org.uk/lobby/stopbombingsyria ).
Will be interesting to see the lists of who voted for/against later on tonight.
Oliver Schick
Greenbank
