Nu Labour's greasy rats last fling?
The Metropolitan Police were granted an injunction yesterday preventing the BBC from telling the world something. British web consensus is that this is a GOOD THING. Here's for why;
1. By all accounts the case against the Blair conspirators is now 110% solid and charges are imminent.
2. The Attorney General must be desperate to find reasons why bringing a prosecution against his Nu Labour chums would either not be in the public interest or not be in the interests of justice
3. If one of the conspirators who is about to be charged leaked a 'killer' document to his mates at the BBC, this would gain worldwide blanket coverage, albeit implicating himself or herself
4. The adverse publicity would prejudice the chance of a fair trial and give the AG the excuse he needs to drop charges.
Everyone but everyone wants to see this sleazy mob in the dock, and every newspaper, TV station, blog and website is trying extra hard not to do anything to wreck Mr Yates' chances of getting them there.

Here here to all that.
My initial reaction was that the AG was coming to the aid of his mate. Far too simplistic though. When you consider the track record of this bunch, it is obvious that they will use every trick in the book to frustrate the inquiry. Leaking killer evidence to prejudice it would be one such trick and no doubt keenly anticipated by Plod. Let's just hush up and let him nail them.
