This country abolished capital punishment when I was a kid,  so why is a British foreign secretary welcoming the death sentence that's just been passed on Saddam Hussein?

Because it's alright to execute someone so long as you do it by proxy - let those nasty foreigners hang him and then the sin falls on their shoulders.

I'm just surprised that she wasn't washing her hands whilst she was being interviewed.

I think Margaret Beckett is out of her depth. She may be a very nice person in private, but she doesn't have the talent or political weight to be foreign secretary
