The desire of Tony Blair to emulate the behaviour of big brother George Bush seemingly knows no bounds. Just like your average five year old boy (maybe he’s learning from Leo) he wants to goes everywhere George goes and do everything he does. When they get together down at the ranch little brother Tony even likes to try and walk just like George. So we shouldn't be surprised with the news that ministers seem determined to circumvent the prohibitions on torture currently enshrined in British and international law.
The government hopes to overturn a European court of human rights decision which barred them from deporting a Sikh activist suspected of terrorist connections, Karamijit Chahal, to India on the grounds that he risked being tortured. At the time home secretary John Reid described the decision as "outrageously imbalanced".
What's next I wonder?
