Politicians blast former MP over Iraq warzone trip

Stupid, foolish and irresponsible. That's how both sides of politics have described Wyatt Roy's visit to Iraq, where the former Liberal M-P got caught up in a clash between the self-proclaimed Islamic State (IS) and Kurdish Peshmerga forces. Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull says Wyatt Roy was stupid and foolish to make the visit and the Labor Party says it was incredibly irresponsible. But the former M-P has defended his trip saying he has a longstanding interest in the region. Mandarin Producer Nila Liu has more.
