The Judge certainly seems to think its a possibility -
The judge who granted the injunction at the police's request said "there is a substantial element of truth in what the intended BBC broadcast was to say".
I find this paragraph of the report particularly telling -
The police requested the injunction because they did not wish certain individuals to know in advance the nature of the document that they possessed.
C'mon fat lady, this is your cue!
I've just been reading that a decision has been taken to "relax" the injunction on the BBC so they can name those involved in the email saga.
Enough already!
Either its prejudicial to a possible trial or it isn't.
Censorship of this type should be ignored.
Now Downing Street are "disputing" the "story" yet none of us are allowed to hear the detail.
What a crazy state of affairs.
This country, supposed bastion of liberty and democracy is those things in name only. Men, accused of Rape for example are named, in circumstances where it is later shown the woman was a liar, these men have tarnished reputations for life.
Yet when It comes to the little elite who ru(i)n this country, its a different story altogether.
Message to the CPS, Judge, Police & Government: Take a shit or get off the pot.
Since it was revealed on Friday that the Attorney General had obtained an injunction against the BBC, the blogs have been widely speculating as to the nature of the story.
The Sunday papers seem reflect this speculation, i.e. that the story centres on an email between "two of Blair's senior aides".
Which two "senior aides" have been arrested so far?
What specifically does this email say?
Are charges imminent?
Where is Blair this weekend? What about the rest of the cabinet or the usual Sunday morning mouthpieces?
There has been some speculation that this could have been leaked by sources from Downing Street to allow for a defence of an unfair trial. As a result, we don't want to give them any ammo, to that end, until this is resolved I'm turning comment moderation on this blog.
That said, I'd like more people to participate more in this blog, so feel free to leave your comments, just might take a little time to appear!
