    Surely countries producing airplanes would have been a better target after 9/11

        It's all rather interesting, but I can't seem to write any code at the same time so it's been turned off. Are the panel just sitting there thinking that if only Blair would say what really happened then we can get home early? I guess if he were quick he should be able to spill the beans within about half-an-hour flat.

          Somebody wake me up when the judge put's his black cap on.
          How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

            I cant honestly say what is going to be acheived by this, tbh there is very little public interest in this, it maybe plastered all over the news every 5 seconds but the average man in the street aint interested.

            Just seems a complete 'job for the boys' type of work.

            the media continue to whip up all this 'news' but there are far more relevant news stories to cover, appreciate lives are being lost and my total respect to our armed forces is never in question, but i dont continually want it forced in my face.

            how much is this inquiry costing? watching QT last night quite a few answers were focused around reducing spending, heres one thing that could save a bob or two

              I liked the bit where he said that despite all his experience of interviews, the formidable Fern Britton managed to extract an admission from him that he wouldn't have wanted to give. Move over Paxman.

                Nothing new here. And I'm sure, being a lawyer, he's practised his answers and comebacks for a while. Its all kinda like a west end show, all show and dance but nothing will come of it.

                      There's no way they'll ask him anything that could embarass him.
