Darren Johnson from the London Assembly has told us that Greens have consistently opposed the war in Iraq as illegal and immoral. Many thousands of men, women and children have died since the US-led occupation began. The presence of occupying troops is undermining not reinforcing opportunities for peace and democracy. I support the withdrawal of all British and other troops and for their replacement by a UN peacekeeping force, as part of the transition to a democratic, peaceful and self-governed Iraq. This is the safest and most democratic way of ending the illegal occupation.
