Justice Secretary Kenneth Clarke has warned that the Libyan leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi could seek revenge on Britain for its involvement in airstrikes. In an interview with The Guardian newspaper, the politician said the dictator could stage another Lockerbie-style terrorist attack and admitted he is "not totally convinced anyone knows where Britain is going" in the conflict.
"The British people have reason to remember the curse of Gaddafi - Gaddafi back in power, the old Gaddafi looking for revenge, we have a real interest in preventing that...
"I am not in the Foreign Office, fortunately, so I am not too worried by my remarks. But I am still not totally convinced anyone knows where we are going now."
The comments come as the coalition says it has carried out 96 airstrikes in Libya in the past 24 hours - and that the Libyan air system has been completely taken out. Read More and Video >>>
