Are we right not to intervene in Georgia?
Graham Stewart takes your calls on the South Ossetia conflict. Plus: What's your experience of NHS 24?
Are we right not to intervene in Georgia?
Georgia is a country humiliated this morning. Just five days after thinking they could regain control of South Ossetia, the Georgians have comprehensively lost to Russia with the loss of hundreds of lives. According to the UN 100,000 are now refugees after having fled their homes. Britain has taken Georgia's side in the conflict but has offered no military aid nor any economic sanctions against Russia. Are we right to do nothing, or does our recent past history make it impossible to intervene?
Plus: What's your experience of NHS 24?
A annual review says the health telephone advice service is improving with 90% of urgent calls getting a response within 20 minutes. Does it work for you? And do you agree with the suggestion contained in the report that GPs' surgeries should be open on bank holidays to help the strain?
Graham Stewart takes your calls, texts and emails.
