CIA prisons leak ‘to be probed’ Nov 09

I do have a sense of déjà vu, but it’s probably for the best. Now Blair can put someone in place who actually agrees with him on forcing the disabled into work, and Blunkett can keep his shares and make thousands of pounds.

As he won’t be returning to the Cabinet any time soon, can we assume he’ll finally be turfed out of the grace and favour house he got for being, erm, Home Secretary?
