Gagging the BBC

So let me get this right.

Tony Blair is being investigated by the police.

The media find out something juicy.

And Tony Blair's good mate and appointee, the attorney general Lord Goldsmith blocks the BBC reporting some facts...

The same Lord Goldsmith who changed his opinion so that the Iraq War could be labelled "legal?"

The same Lord Goldsmith who stated he would not be swayed by political consideration, but who (after being ordered by Tony Blair) ordered the dropping of the Saudi arms trade corruption investigation?

The same Lord Goldsmith who can't even be trusted to keep an oath he made to his wife on their wedding day?

But Tony Blair has made a massive error of judgement, because in stopping the BBC reporting its findings, he has stirred up the public interest and created an even greater climate of mistrust in this woefully inept government and corrupt Westminster regime.

What interesting times.
