The members' questions focused on the cease-fire to the 100-hour Persian Gulf ground war. The cease-fire had just been announced ten hours before the session. Members called for heavy investments in developing better techniques for avoiding friendly fire which harms allied troops. On Tuesday, nine British soldiers were killed by fire from an American A-10 plane due to mistaken identity. Other topics of questions included the poll tax, funding for highway improvements for ports along the English channel, and the upcoming by-election in Northern England which will test the post-war popularity of the Conservative Party. close
