Re: chilcot enquiry
Leaves a lot to be desired. They always have this loophole -for the benefit of the country so and so cannot be revealed. The board looks like the old boys association and were probably all graduates from the same monkey house in Cambridge. They could be called the untouchables I suppose. To have an enquiry go on for so long shows it is just delaying tactics until either the general public forget it, or the accused die or have received whatever honours they hope to get, to enable them to get the best seats in the best restaraunts. Justice is seldom done when it comes to the hierarchy. History books will be adjusted to accommodate them. I thought the Costa Concordia Enquiry was a long and overdue and unnecessary time devouring hearing, but this one certainly takes the biscuit. Thought the Bliar Enquiry was over and done with. Certainly hasn't by all appearances affected his life style.. JS

Re: chilcot enquiry
If it was Alison Saunders our DPP in charge of the Chilcot enquiry we would not be told anything at all with the excuse 'Its not in the public interest' End of story.

Re: chilcot enquiry
The amount Sir John is being paid per day would keep me and my adopted kids going for about 60 days! And I'm flat out raising even that much. Because unfortunately, according to my latest sales figures just received, most of the people who have told me they had bought/were about to buy one of my books, have not in fact done so. Sad, but human I suppose. I'm now trying to sell short stories to some newspapers. Wish me - and the kids - luck.

Re: chilcot enquiry
Just as a matter of interest, what is the Chilcot Enquiry? Another 'job for the boys' or something serious?
