0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Lord Huttons whitewash of Tony Blairs Iraq invasion.By PizzaroThe great rewards of reading this book are finding out precisely why Blair Downing Street felt safe from the moment they saw their choice of Lord Brian Hutton approved as the man to head the Iraq dossier investigation. The late Phillip Gould; one of the Prime Ministers most trusted advisors; was overheard telling a colleague; we appointed the right judge." p.198.I myself remember reading in a London newspaper after the release of the Blair-friendly Hutton report a remark by a Blair ally; "When the word got out that Hutton was the one appointed to lead the Gilligan panel; we knew we were safe." In Chapter 8; pages 197-220; "How Hutton Failed" we get a full account of Huttons prior record of pro-establishment findings and his antipathy to whistle blowers of all kinds. This record of Hutton bias is augmented by the final chapter "Postscript" pages 303-318. To find this material collected in one place is worth the price of the book.The bulk of the book (330 pages) is devoted to this BBC insiders hour-by-hour account of what transpired from Andrew Gilligans 6:07AM bombshell and Alexander Campbells subsequent hellish and indefatigable counterattack + distortions. Its slow going because the text is fortifying itself against possible legal reprisals and potential charges of libel and slander. This explains the over meticulous parsings of events and mincings of words throughout. This is contested terrain and the author; under BBC imprimatur; has to act with utmost meticulous care of presentation.There was a big shakeup of the BBC as a result of Lord Huttons blinkered and inadequate setting out of his remit and lines of questioning. A subsequent panel chaired by Lord Butler chased many of the shadows away; but Blair got the period of respite he needed after leading the nation into Bushs war.
