Not that I need further persuasion of the blatantly obvious.Actually there was little new in the article other than its focus on the alleged wallpaper stripping. Norman Baker's book details the helicopter search, the death certificate and the timing anomalies together with the police asking (ordering?) the family to stay in the back garden whilst the house was searched. I considered that bizarre. I mean who would trust anybody - let alone the police - to root around one's house, not only without a warrant, but without witnessing it either? I guess there are simply some very trusting souls around still.
It mentions a group of doctors who are involved in the case. Any idea how they got involved?
What I find most interesting is the tenacity with which a Spook dominated right wing newspaper is pursuing an issue of such apparent potential embarrassment to Deep State interests. For me, it's less a question of what they report; more one of who is drip-feeding the information and controlling the timing.
The other thing that intrigues me is reports of 'Justice' Secretary Ken Clarke considering re-opening the inquest and 'considering' the doctors request to have the 70 year embargo on the post-mortem report lifted. You will see from the other thread that the reaction to news that Hutton had embargoed it for 70 years was such as to get him reported as relenting and agreeing that these docs should be allowed to see it. Turns out that, once acceded to by government, the decision on any embargo-lifting remains with the government and it has NOT yet been lifted. There's a lot of perception management going on here - very much British Permanent Government par for the course in fact.
David Halpin is one of the doctors. He's a long-time campaigner on Palestine and other issues. He was on the first abortive flotilla. His web site is here
