The Ambassador's Last Stand

Wed 21 Sep, 7:00 pm - 7:50 pm 50 mins

"Craig Murray was our man in Uzbekistan, who says he put his life and career on the line for a principle. He made claims and protests about the apparent British policy of obtaining intelligence via torture. The fallout led to his early resignation, and then Murray stood against his former boss, foreign secretary Jack Straw, in Blackburn in the general election.

John Sweeney tells the story of Britain's colourful former ambassador to Uzbekistan. He follows Murray, his glamorous young Uzbeki girlfriend Nodira, and a platoon of volunteers as they try to awaken Blackburn to what they believe is New Labour's complicity in torture."

1. Thanks for this

I was reading earlier, Craig Murray has launched into Straw again saying, rightly, that he lied over Britain knowing about intelligence being gained from torture. He should have won in Blackburn. Apparently, there was quite a bit of vote fraud in that area wasn't there.
