Richard Littlejohn whines this week that those that returned from Guantanamo Bay have talked about the treatment they received. None of their claims can be verified but that didn’t prevent them being repeated at great length in an interview with Winston Silcott’s hagiographer David Rose. This from the paper that spent at least two days insisting that the U.S. had told them that the former prisoners were terrorists and had the proof that they were card carrying members of the Taliban and/or Al Qaeda. Seeing as there's another Britain still in jail who looks like he's going to go on trial for planning to attack the Houses of Parliament using surrealism, it's odd that the US authorities didn't put them on trial with all this evidence they supposedly have, or at the very least hand it over to the British authorities so they could do it.

When the BBC lies once that seems to be big news. Yet News International and Murdoch's various companies lie daily and that's business as usual.
