Bloglines - Craig Murray forced to withdraw documents under pressure from UK government

LFCM
We are a group of London based people who got together to support Craig Murray's election campaign in the spring of 2005. We say no to the current British governments toleration of torture and call for an honest assessment of the cost of the Iraq invasion and other aspects of the 'war on terror'.

Craig Murray forced to withdraw documents under pressure from UK government

By Friend

So, after legal advice Craig has decided to take down, at least for while, some of the documents that the UK government is trying to supress. Maybe the government is a little late though, as the still growing list of sites mirroring the documents demonstrates. Current legal advice is that the copyright move only applies to Craig's site. Certainly, we currently have no intention of removing the documents from this site.

Interesting times. With the police investigation into the cash-for-parliamentary-seats scam slowly closing in on Tony Blair himself, it is hard to remember a time in Britain when the whole political/parliamentary process was held in such disrepute. The labour party should be in for a good conference in Manchester in September!
