Just time to break off from the serious business of wading through the last remnants of the Christmas feast to point out that Craig Murray, our former ambassador to the happy and carefree democracy that is (if you believe Messrs Bush, Blair et al) Uzbekistan, has brought his ongoing dispute with his former employers to the blogosphere by publishing evidence that the UK government has indeed relied on evidence extracted by torture in its prosecution of the laughably mistitled war on terror. Mmm-mm we love the smell of waterboarding in the morning, it smells like being embroiled in an unending conflict with an undefeatable foe, fought for unclear reasons by reprehensible means.
