Men atomlobbyen huggede hovedet af Salters and og sagde, at den ikke ville være effektiv. Salter's Duck was killed by the nuclear industry which said it would not be effective.

undvigeBør han ikke spille en aktiv rolle i bekæmpelsen af den internationale terrorisme i stedet for at forsøge at undvige emnet? Would he not agree that he should be leading to ensure that in the light of international terrorism he takes a positive role and does not try to duck out of this position? I betragtning af at han er en del af en regering, der har indtaget en fast holdning til international terrorisme, er det meget overraskende, at han helt forsøger at undvige emnet her i aften.Considering that he is part of a government that has taken such a strong line on international terrorism, the way in which he has ducked the issue – his cop-out here this evening – is totally amazing.
