UK Top Cop Michael Todd's Sudden Death : Further Questioning Required?

*

Simple straightforward question for Home Secretary, Jaqui Smith (seen below).



Seeing as stuff such as we've clipped & pasted below is starting to surface in public (concerning the Chief Constable of our country's second largest police force), what we want to know is how and why he was able and/or allowed - by you - to remain in the job regardless ?

The BBC has also learnt that Mr Todd suffered from bouts of depression, and had previously threatened suicide.

Shouldn't you, being his boss, now be (to coin a phrase), brought in for questioning?

And, wouldn't you concur, the quicker the bloody better?



And what about your boss, Brown?



Shouldn't he too be required to say something suitably sensible and plausible on such a serious score (of scandalous proportion), as this shocking story so obviously is?

And, shouldn't he be standing up and saying it as soon as sodding possible?

Michael Todd : UK's Top "CIA Extraordinary Rendition/Torture" Cop's Dead Body Discovered ...

A body found at a beauty spot in North Wales has been identified as that of the Chief Constable of Greater Manchester Police ~ Britain's second largest police force.



Michael Todd QPM M Phil BA (Hons)

Mr Todd was the man in charge of the 'rendition for torture' investigation into the alleged use of British territory by America's C.I.A.

Just nine months ago (June 07), the resulting report ruled that there was no evidence ... etc, etc, blah, blah, blah ...

Nevertheless, only last month (Feb 08), Prime Minister Gordon Brown's new, New Labour Government admitted that the US had indeed used UK territory in the furtherance of C.I.A. 'extraordinary rendition'. Which, as almost everyone with a modicum of common sense knows, is merely a modern "Made in USA" euphemism for torture.

And yes, before anyone bothers blasting us, we are well aware that there could indeed be no dots whatsoever to be joined.

And yes, it could all just as easily be complete coincidence - and therefore not connected in any way at all, with any kind of conspiracy ; either real or imagined.

Right?

Time alone will might tell.

US Courts Calmly Claim Kidnapping Brits (And Anyone Else In The World) Is OK ...

*

This is a first for us.

We're speechless.

US says it has right to kidnap British citizens

AMERICA has told Britain that it can “kidnap” British citizens if they
are wanted for crimes in the United States.

A senior lawyer for the American government has told the Court of Appeal in London that kidnapping foreign citizens is permissible under American law because the US Supreme Court has sanctioned it.

(snip)

Until now it was commonly assumed that US law permitted kidnapping only in the “extraordinary rendition” of terrorist suspects.

The American government has for the first time made it clear in a British court that the law applies to anyone, British or otherwise, suspected of a crime by Washington.

Read the rest of this intolerable revelation.



Special relationship?

Don't sodding start us.

Special relationship, our arses!
