Zimbabwe does not want any interference in it's internal affairs. Even if they did, I do not see why British troops should be sent there. Anyone who has rights to British Citizenship and doesn't want to stay there can leave. If they don't want to leave, then be it on their own head.

I believe British intereference in other countries ended with the Empire. No longer should our armed forces be used to solve other peoples problems. The people of Zimbabwe took up arms to evict the 'oppressive' white regime. They can do so again if they find Mugabe as oppressive.
