There is not surprisingly a good deal of political point scoring in the UK now, some suspect ministers will be sacked - for not hearing the division bell - and the media are wondering what it all means.

So from another surprising place, a Daily Telegraph editorial which ends with:
At the same time, it may be no bad thing that our leaders have learnt that they do not have free rein to commit the nation to overseas adventures – especially not when the public is unconvinced, the consequences are wildly uncertain and our military capabilities have been cut to the bone. Or that Britain has been left a humbler nation – with a far humbler Prime Minister.

Hopefully the UK and others will actually provide some help within and beyond Syria's borders to the ordinary Syrian people who are the "jam in the sandwich". Just giving 100k ampoules of anti-nerve agent to MSF would be something (I am a supporter of MSF).
