ichkeria,
Maybe you need to read the opening paragraph again in the link:
A global report last night made a blistering attack on the UK Government for its ‘evasion, denial and delays’ over establishing the truth about Britain’s complicity in torture.
Could the Mail have shot themselves in the foot with such a story attempting to do down Labour? There are those who might say, 'More power to their elbow', particularly when those being abused were suspected Islamic terrorists.
That statement does not automatically mean that parliament knew what was going on. Again this is a Daily Wail attempt to deride the Labour Party.
-------------------
Jack Straw's recent actions and his misleading of a Commons Select Committee whilst in office that have been recently exposed mean he's doing that all by himself at the moment.
How can you say the Government didn't know about it. When Blair was kissing Gaddaffi in the tent he was promising to route out Gaddafi opponents and have them extradited to Libya. Can't get more complicit than that!!!

I forgot, the Guardian and ilk never attack the Tories I they???
Delay in establishing the truth: exactly. But we don't know what the truth is. It is heartening to see so many unlikely suspects though leaping to the defence of some unlikely people :-)
Theyre prisoners of war, captured in Afganistan. As 'claimed' Brit subjects what were they doing there? Who are we in UK to interfere in means of gathering info from prisoners in offshore prisons.
I assume you were referring to the naive idea that we should help the opponents of Assad in Syria. Stupid idea but it never happened. Unlike the disastrous wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Nobody knew at the time that opponents of Assad would morphe into the most brutal regime in history! I'm not making excuses for Cameron, he went off half cocked so thank goodness for our Parliamental system. Blair was once asked when he was going to discuss a really important issue regarding Iraq to the Caninet he answered "What's it got to do with them?
