Saddam hanging deplorable - Brown {UK Chancellor}
Advertisements [?]
"Chancellor Gordon Brown has condemned the way in which Saddam Hussein was executed as "deplorable".
Mr Brown told BBC One's Sunday AM show the manner of the former Iraqi leader's hanging was "completely unacceptable".

The chancellor said he was personally against the death penalty, and he hoped lessons would be learnt from the mistakes made in Saddam's execution.

Mobile phone footage of the hanging showed Saddam being taunted. Tony Blair has not yet commented on the hanging."
