First Britain's ever entertaining deputy Prime Minister, John Prescott, spoke out forcefully against the means and manner of the execution of Saddam Hussein and now Tony Blair's heir apparent, the Chancellor of the Exchequer Gordon Brown, rounds on the killing saying in part:
"Now that we know the full picture of what happened we can sum this up as a deplorable set of events. It has done nothing to lessen tensions between the Shia and Sunni communities. Even those people, unlike me, who are in favour of capital punishment found this completely unacceptable."
And from the great man himself? Well the silence is deafening.
