Cameron's Iran nuclear bomb claim 'dangerous'
DAVID Cameron was accused of committing a "dangerous" gaffe when he appeared to suggest that Iran had a nuclear weapon.
Labour's former Europe minister Chris Bryant said the Prime Minister was gaining a reputation as a "foreign policy klutz" who had his feet "firmly planted in his mouth".
His attack came after Mr Cameron said Turkey would be an important influence in the EU because it could help solve some of the world's problems "like the Middle East peace process and the fact that Iran has got a nuclear weapon". A Downing Street spokeswoman stressed: "He is talking about the pursuit of a nuclear weapon."
