Very informative article about Lord Hutton by UK MP who wrote book about Kelly's death.
Norman Baker is the Liberal Democrat MP for Lewes and the author of The Strange Death Of David Kelly.



snip


Lord Hutton was the ideal appointment for the Government. He had chaired only one inquiry before - into the diversion of a river in Northern Ireland.

Even more importantly, throughout his career he had shown himself to be sympathetic to the Government and critical of the media.

In 1973, he had represented the Ministry of Defence at the Bloody Sunday inquests. In 1991, he successfully led the campaign to overturn the decision to extradite the Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet.

In 2002, he blocked the attempt by renegade MI5 officer David Shayler to use a public-interest defence to justify his revelations about the actions of the organisation.

4. one day people will know the truth
they can cover it up all they want but in time it will come. Perhaps a Lib-Lab pact would let the cat out of the bag?

5. My plea
I wrote a plea to the British people at the link begging them to get to the bottom of this.

Their leadership and institutions seem to be getting as abusive as ours are!

If this Dr. Kelly inquiry gets some transparency applied to it, perhaps all the traitors that started this bogus war will be held to account somewhere.

If Great Britain prosecutes Blair for treason (or whatever it's called in the U.K.?) do you think the Bushies would be able to escape the wrath of the entire world any more?
