Anita McNaught explains context of Cameron's speech on Libya
  • 12 years ago
British Prime Minister David Cameron is expected to welcome an investigation into "significant" accusations that the UK security services became "too close" to Libya.

Documents discovered in Tripoli following the fall of Muammar Gaddafi's dictatorial regime appear to suggest that the UK traded information with Libya in return for intelligence extracted from terror suspects under interrogation in Libyan prisons.

MI6 has been implicated in having certain people tortured, violating British law. This was supposed to have been done durring the tenure of Tony Blair. Anita says the finding speaks of a moral vacum at the heart of British government.
