The Hutton Inquiry has hit the fan.
Much has been said about the publication of the Hutton report. The nice thing is everything is available on-line, so there is no need to pay £70 to obtain a printed copy of this report.
I like the website - it allows the public to see all the evidence and makes our government and security services transparent. Brian Hutton painstakingly ploughed through all the evidence and produced a very readable and clear report. It is clearly thought out and argued point by point. He takes you through it from day one and gives logical conclusions. I feel he has judged this inquiry right - it has not been a whitewash.
I agree with his conclusions. At the end of the day the Police investigated Kelly's death and found it to be suicide. The Joint Intelligence Committee did it's job as a civil service committee and the government did it's job in encouraging progress on the dossier. Everything seems to be in order and David Kelly simply could not handle the heat of the fuss he created.
