So the Prime Minister Tony Blair has finally been questioned at No.10 by the police. However, it seems that he was not questioned under caution - allowing him to be seen as a witness rather than a suspect - and the head of the police investigation into the affair was not present at No.10 for the interview. This suggests that a deal was made between Downing Street and the police to allow a favourable picture to be presented to the public.
What is more interesting is that still no-one has asked to see the accounts for how the alleged amount of fourteen million quid in 'loans' was spent. After all, neither the Deputy Prime Minister, the Chancellor of the Exchequer or the party treasurer claims to have any knowledge of it.
Perhaps the police are saving their caution for the interview where they ask to see the books!
Could be interesting!!
