July 24, 20169 yr Have I been dreaming again, or was the Chilcot report actually released a few weeks ago? Hardly a mention of the report or Teflon Tony in the media these last couple of weeks. Then again, he's innocent of all charges and of no more interest to the media.
July 26, 20169 yr It seems to be of more interest to the non-Blairite sections of the Labour Party than the Tories. To the Tories Blair is history, so there's no point raking over the ashes unless/until there is something to be gained. That something might be the Blairites getting control of the party again. Aren't private prosecutions in the pipeline though?

Quote We, the Families, wish to bring such legal proceedings against any state officials who might have acted unlawfully or in excess of their powers. However, we cannot take any action before our legal team, McCue & Partners, one of our country's leading human rights and public interest law firms, has done a full and forensic legal analysis of the Report (2.6 million words over twelve volumes) and prepared a comprehensive opinion approved by expert Senior Counsel. There are no shortcuts. We have estimated that, to complete this work, we require £150,000 to cover all associated costs. We are starting with a target of £50,000, which will enable us to make a start, but to help us get through this stage we need all the support we can get in raising the full £150,000. https://www.crowdjustice.co.uk/case/chilcot/ They are still short about £24.5K. I'm tempted, but will it do any good?
