Wait a minute. Prescott condemns the ‘Saddam killing’?? Or so says all the meejah that matter (BBC, Metro, Guardian, google news sources).
Sorry, but maybe I didn’t hear it right. What he said was
‘I think the manner was quite deplorable really. I don’t think one can endorse in any way that, whatever your views about capital punishment. Frankly, to get the kind of recorded messages coming out is totally unacceptable and I think whoever is involved and responsible for it should be ashamed of themselves.
It’s not the execution itself he’s condemning (contrary to ALL the reports) but the fact that someone was allowed to film it and then release that film on YouTube. It’s that action that he thinks people should be ashamed of.
It’s typical NuLab–don’t care what people are doing as long as no one knows.
Or have I got a stick at the wrong end?
