New Labour arrogance

It seems that new Labour, have a new policy when dealing with bad news. We witnessed this with the John Prescott watched as he ignored and then blustered his way through the scandal of his affair with a junior member of his staff. As far as I can see Mrs Blair, is taking pretty much the same line of defence, ignore the problem until it goes away.

Now the problem that I have is that, Cherie Blair has her own career outside politics and so we're told is a very accomplished lawyer, this being the case, she would be more than eloquent in dismissing the criticism around the autographing of the Hutton report, so presumably it would be quite simple for Cherie Blair and to explain why she needn't apologise and put our minds at rest.

An alternative theory might well be, that Cherie Blair will wait for the dust to settle on this issue, if you like me, think that this is an example of outrageous arrogance on cherry Blair's part, you can sign a petition requesting that she apologise. This I discovered on Ian Dale's blog, which whilst not really my cup of tea (way to far to the right for my taste) does seem to expose quite a lot of hypocrisy and dual standards.
