12. On Lord Hutton
years ago there was that famous case where a deputy chief constable of Manchester (I think) did an inquiry into wether there was a 'shoot to kill' policy being operated by the RUC in Northern Ireland. When it came to the attention of the authorities that he was doing too concietious and honest a job of the inquiry he was 'fitted up' on corruption charges.

Lord Hutton has done inquiries -plural- in Northern Ireland if I heard right on the BBC, so I would assume he is regarded as a safe pair of hands as far as blair is concerned.
