Downing Street Says

Put that Reuters had been quoting that US Defence officials had said that the British Army was at breaking point in Iraq, and that there was a timetable of withdrawal of British troops in 12 months time, the PMS said that she had not seen that particular report. However, she pointed the journalist to what the Prime Minister had said at PMQs earlier in the day when he had set out very clearly again the UK’s position on Iraq and that that remained unchanged.

It’s a bit early for the PMOS to brief the press on Iraq at 17.00. The American Defence Officials haven’t had time to get up and phone him with the statement.
