Cherie and Mr Campbell autograph Hutton report !!

Iain Dale has been reporting about this on his Blog. As I said earlier this week in my view Tony Blair should stand trial for the Iraq war. General Sir Michael Rose seems to have the same opinion. I'm not quite sure on what charge, but I believe that is in part due to the government controlling all the relevant information. Ask yourself why is the Hutton report seen as such a triumph that it can be auctioned of at a Labour party fund raiser ? I still believe it is fear of this factor that is leading Blair to cling to power.

The lack of taste issue I leave to others.

Do you remember how sick Blair looked on his far east trip when the news of Dr Kelly's death was broke? He looked to me like a man who knew the game was up.

This is looking more and more like the House of Cards. Time for the final cut ?

"We used to think that you could spend your way out of a recession and increase employment by cutting taxes and boosting government spending. I tell you in all candour that that option no longer exists." James Callaghan

“The trouble with theoretical economists is that they don't understand that when you have a deficit, you can only finance it by borrowing, and you've got to persuade people that it's worth lending money to you and that they'll get their money back... there's no way of escaping it.” Dennis Healey during the 1976 Stirling Crisis.

"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the Capitalist System was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens ... Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of over-turning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose." John Maynard Keynes, 1920.

"To preserve [the people's] independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our selection between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude." Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States of America,1801-1809.
