Well he,s done it again, as well as Hoon and a few others, the BBC comes out of this like a wounded pheasant, although Gavin Davies has resigned, but not Dyke........yet.
Hutton may as well have said he found WMD as well, just to cap it all.
Oh well another 4 years for Tone....JJ will be pleased.

Most definitely.....with a very large brush.
Did you notice Tony's mate Alistair making his speech standing up!...........if he'd taken a seat he'd have broken Hoon's legs!
Or perhaps I'm just too cynical these days.

Have to say I'm very surprised that the Beeb is virtually the sole target of the learned judge. I assumed the only reason Hoon was still in a job was to be sacked when the report came out.
As for Gilligan, well, any journalist who outs another reporter's source is a complete and utter shitebag. Of all the people who ought to feel guilt for Dr Kelly's tragic death, he is first in the list in my opinion.
Fear that Liz is right about Teflon Tone, though. What looked like a fatal 24 hours for the King of Smarm and Insincerity has instead entrenched his position.

The last 48 hours definately had Tone on the ropes, but his cheesey grin suggests it did him good to come out whiter than white.
Joe Public is now tiring of President Blair, and I wish we took a leaf out of the US government, and give him a maximum of 2 terms, IF he is re-elected after his first term.

Am I right in thinking that Hutton didn't receive any evidence "in camera". So its interesting, to say the least, that his conclusions are markedly at odds with what many people were saying during and after the enquiry.
As for that shit Alistair Campbell there is never any reference to his previous employer - the bouncing Czech, Captain Bob.

Not really so surprising, aren't High Court Judges appointed by the Lord Chancellor in HMQ's name.
Oh yeah I forgot....Teflon Tone just abolished him! So when yer Jobs on the line.............best to toe Tones party line.
Nice observation about Alistair but then, fat laden shite always floats & Bobs to the top!
As for that snide c**t Hoon, he ought to pull on his shorts
(don't forget yer body armour) n get out in the desert & show them where the WMD are actually hidden......after all didn't we sell them the stuff in the first place.

Anybody still think that Gordan Brown will pull Tony's chair from underneath him & be leader by the next election?
Can't believe the BBC is the sole body responsible for Dr Kelly's death....it all still feels abit iffy to me!! No smoke without fire, me thinks!
As the BBC chief is appointed by the Prime Minister, i.e. the Hon Tony Blair he's going to have to find somebody who will be kind to the Labour party in election year when ever it comes.
Geoff Hoon should now quit over the lack of equipment for our armed forces out in the gulf......but he says it ain't his fault!!!
So come on Mr P.M. where are the WMD's then??
