Iraq War Evidence

Unamazingly Jack Straw yesterday defied the will of the information commissioner and refused to publish the details of the cabinet's discussions on the Iraq War.

Presumably the truth- that government thought the war was illegal and then lied about about anyway, would be quite damaging.

We all suspect the truth, but cannot have it confirmed to us while Labour remain in power.

So we have a government that breaks international law and vetos the release of this information to protect its own interests , is complicit in torturing its suspects but has a foreign minister who tries to cover it all up, and a home office minister facing a proble because she gave herself an illegal £100,000 defacto bonus. All this, just in the last week.

Welcome to the labour government. It is 2009.
