Relatives of British soldiers killed in Iraq form new political party
A new political party has been launched by the families of British soldiers killed in Iraq, with plans to field up to 70 candidates at the next general election. Spectre, has been set up by campaigner Reg Keys, whose son Thomas was killed with five other Royal Military policemen in Iraq in 2003.
Mr Keys, who stood against Tony Blair in last year's general election, pledged the party would target the people the families hold responsible for the deaths of their sons. "We all feel we've been lied to, ignored and, frankly, insulted. But now it's different. Now we're going to make ministers pay with their seats," he said.
