On the news this lunch time

Tony Blair advised Rebekah Brooks on the phone-hacking scandal,

He is said to have advised her set up her own "Hutton style" enquiry

"He said the inquiry would be "Hutton style" – a reference to Lord Hutton's inquiry into the death of David Kelly – and would "clear" her, but warned that "shortcomings" would have to be accepted as a result of the report."

My opinion of Tony B liar was never a good one but it makes me wonder just how much more will come to light about him over time

In the light of this news/allegation i think the death of British scientist David Kelly needs to be looked at again
