French president on the wires in the wake of the Paris attacks
- grand coalition needed even if interests of each country in Syria are not the same
A definite nod to Russia there who have making attacks on anti-Assad rebels
Elsewhere UK PM Cameron has just told parliament that UN Council backing would be preferable but is not needed to launch more aggressive military attacks on Syria
" Russia has different aims to us and they have repeatedly threatened to veto any such resolution.
Of course it is always preferable in these circumstances to have the full backing of the UN but I have to say what matters most of all is that any action we take would be both legal and help protect our country"
Cameron making it clear again that he is ready to pull the trigger
