To: Dear Prime MInster,

We,

the undersigned,

call on the British Government to implement immediately a timetable to complete the withdrawal of all British troops from Iraq within six months.

It is time to recognise that British troops can do no more in Iraq. Their professionalism and dedication has been outstanding and their courage has been beyond belief. The Government is failing to answer the fundamental question about the military purpose they are serving and the political objective they are achieving by their continued presence. The level of casualties is unacceptable. We have a moral obligation to the young men and women of our armed forces. We should now set a framework for their withdrawal from Iraq
