Last Straw

Soli­citor Daniel Machover, after politi­cians — includ­ing Gor­don Brown — hatch a plan to insu­late  fel­low politi­cians from uni­ver­sal jur­is­dic­tion:

I feel hon­est revul­sion at the idea of a case where a judge has gran­ted an arrest war­rant and a politi­cian gets on the phone and apo­lo­gises. They have got to stay out of indi­vidual cases and legal decisions.

Of course Gor­don Brown and the gov­ern­ment he is a part of played an integ­ral role in the inva­sions of Iraq and Afgh­anistan. He’s just look­ing out for his own kind.
