Dickie 0 Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 That was a grim read but excellently put aye not much to look forward to. And that's without even mentioning the levels of homelessness that are going through the roof, let alone external worries like IS and Putin!

Renton 22003 Posted July 6, 2016 Share Posted July 6, 2016 Asking for the dead to be remembered, saying Robin Cook has been proven right. What a cunt eh? I don't see why he had to bring Cook into, but aye, that would appear to be a completely inappropriate reaction. Iirc 90% of this board agreed with Robin Cook at the time, including me. From what I can tell Chilcott hasn't told us anything we didn't know, even back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iirc 90% of this board agreed with Robin Cook at the time, including me. From what I can tell Chilcott hasn't told us anything we didn't know, even back then. From Jonathan Freedland in the Guardian: Some will say that none of this is really new, that Chilcot simply repeated everything the critics had said about this war from the beginning. But that means a lot. This was the voice of the establishment, not a placard at a demo or a trenchant Guardian column. The Chilcot report is the official judgment on the 2003 invasion. For those who stood against the war, including the families of those who lost their lives, that represents belated vindication. For Blair it means a verdict that damns him for the ages.

PaddockLad 17661 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) I imagine Cook was brought into it because he resigned from the cabinet over its support for the invasion of Iraq. Edited July 7, 2016 by PaddockLad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I saw tweets linking to Cooks resignation speech all morning before corbyn mentioned it. Point was that his speech summarised in a few hundred words PRIOR to the invasion what Chilcot says in far more detail and with what Blair would have you think was hindsight. The publication is a vindication of Cook who never lived to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
