Vietnam War
As the British Prime Minister faces the inquiry into the UK's involvement in the Iraq War - we take you back to the 1960s and ask why the UK decided not to play a part in Vietnam.
When the US was fighting the war in Vietnam during the 1960s, although Australia and New Zealand sent troops to fight with them - the UK did not.
Denis Healey, Britain's Defence Minister at the time, talks to Witness about why his government was able to resist American invitations to join the war. He also gives his view on Tony Blair's decision to join the US in the invasion of Iraq.
