That was against war in general. At the time they still thought that Iraq had WMD, and that Iraq was responsible. Because that was the lie being fed.
People (British) generally thought the U.K. held a lot of responsibility for empowering Sadam and not acting in the 80’s when he slaughtered the Kurds. We also felt we didn’t go far enough in the first gulf war.
Let’s not forget the Iraq’s almost achieved a super artillery system capable of firing NBC shells around 1000 miles right under our nose. Sadam fully intended to harm.
