UK-US MUST HAND IRAQ TO UN OR PLUNGE WORLD INTO CHAOS

THE UK and US must hand control of post-war Iraq to the UN or risk plunging the world into instability and conflict, London Euro-MP JeanLambert will warn Islington Anti-War campaigners on Friday (May 16, 2003).

“Blair and Bush face a stark choice between a future based on respect for international law or the ‘might is right’ law of the jungle,” Mrs Lambert will tell peace activists including rebel Labour MP Jeremy Corbyn.

Her comments will be made at a special forum to discuss what is next for the anti-war movement. The night continues with live entertainment from a range of performers including:

· John Lester – an award winning singer songwriter from San Francisco(featured on the Peace not War CD) · Ian Saville – a socialist magician described by the Independent as “ideologically sound and magnificently
bonkers!” · Leon Rosselson – A true veteran of satirical song who started off as a member of the Galliards and has performed with artists such as Billy Bragg and Frankie Amrstong.
