'Artificial' to put restrictions on fighting Isis, says George Osborne

Britain should extend RAF air strikes against Islamic State targets in Iraq to Syria because it is “a bit strange and a bit artificial” to impose restrictions on the fight against the terrorists, George Osborne has said.
As David Cameron prepares to outline the government comprehensive strategy on Syria to MPs, the chancellor also said that Britain needs to widen its involvement in the air campaign because it is wrong to expect allies such as France to bear the burden.
