So now we get nearer to the truth. That Jack Straw took legal advice in a rather cavalier way. In fact, he was too cavalier. Accusing people of being "dogmatic" and saying that "international law was pretty vague". Actually, it's not, but New Labour has never been a great follower of legal niceties.I'd say it sums up this weasel wordsmith to a tee. Jack Straw has never been a man of principal, rather a man keen to bend with the wind. Trouble for him is that he won't be able to bend with the hurricane I hope is going to come and blow the New Labour flotsam and jetsam away.
