Jack Straw: lifting, explaining, hiding
You know, loathe as I am to agree with the obsequious little weathercock, I think Jack Straw might be on to something here:
Labour will always put victims and their families first. That’s why we are transforming criminal justice from a bureaucratic system to the public’s service It’s about a change of culture, of attitude, about lifting the veil which sometimes keeps justice from view: explaining more, hiding less.
Justice in the open. Explaining more, hiding less. Who could disagree with that? Yes, Jack, I’ll sign up to that.
Now, to start as we mean to go on, how about public inquiries into the Iraq war and the July 7 bombings? You know, if you’re really bothered about lifting veils, explaining more, and hiding less.
(And what is it about Jack Straw and ‘lifting veils‘ anyway?)
