If you type “Iraq” into their search box the hit count is now 5 for this major policy question. The new one is a mention in a loooong budget speech: “we have also been able to meet the extra and unanticipated costs of Iraq… 4.9 billion”.Although the occupation was long anticipated since March 2002, they had expected Iraq to pay for its own invasion, so I guess the costs in tax money were unanticipated. We were always going to pay, but it was supposed to be part of the price of petrol.
