An attempt at genuine political commentary, by a poorly informed walrus

This seems to be at least one of the stories today.

"The Premier urged opposition parties to move on from their relentless questioning about the legality of the conflict and suggested they should focus on Britain's future."

Quite aside from the future that the dead on both sides no longer have, (a poignant, if simplistic argument) the question still remains as to whether we should elect someone who will do it again. And with Bush's global mission to spread democracy, and his special people-slaughtering powers, granted by Congress, the option's going to come up for the next Prime Minister.

"Charles Kennedy, Liberal Democrats leader, said on a visit to a school in Bournemouth: 'The best thing the Prime Minister can do now is publish the Attorney General's legal advice and then the country can make its own mind up.' "

Of course, he won't, and we don't expect him to. And no doubt the lorries already barracading refineries will take some attention away from it before too long.
