The UK Attorney General Lord Goldsmith has yet again call for the closure of the detention facility at Guantanom Bay. He said:
"I am not embarrassed to repeat here my views on Guantanamo Bay which are well known; that it is unacceptable and that it is time that it should be closed; that it has become a symbol of injustice, a recruiting agent for terrorists. It is a symbol which the long American tradition of justice and liberty deserves to see removed at the earliest moment."
He is due to meet with U.S. Attorney General Gonzalez today. One suspects they don't exactly see eye to eye on this topic (if, indeed, anything). Given the focus of Bush's weekly radio address the best we can hope for is that they agree to disagree.
