The Hutton report followed the much criticized enquiry led by Lord Hutton into the death of Dr. David Kelly, the arms inspector found dead near his home in cicumstances that aroused much controversy. Tony Blair famously set up the enquiry as a way around the holding of a formal inquest, thereby exacting less stringent rules of investigation. His Government were absolved from all blame in the report.
The question now is this: is Tony Blair now citing the 'Hutton' report as a ruse of obfuscation, possibly deceit? Could the 'Hutton' report now become a synonym for 'whitewash'?
