London Bombs - No Public Inquiry

Another Dodgy Dossier instead?

SNIP

Home Secretary Charles Clarke will instead publish a detailed "narrative of events", written by a senior civil servant which will include information from police and intelligence reports

From the Times the reason:
an inquiry would offer a "distraction" from future terrorist threats and take too long to report, Mr Clarke said.

2. That distraction is,
IMHO, a necessary one.

The Brits are fighting fascism harder, but it seems that Blair is determined to put in place the same kinds of limits on personal freedom.....and by the same methods.......as the US has done.

I believe that this administration was, at the very least, complicit in both the 9/11 events and in the British events.
