Q.E.D.

December 21st, 2007 · No Comments

In his interview with the BBC yesterday morning, Dr. Brown indicated that the allegation of corruption at the BHC “will disappear, it will evaporate, now that the election is over.”

Then, yesterday afternoon, he transferred responsibility for the judiciary and public prosecutions to his control at the Cabinet office. So, indeed, he’s probably correct.

Rather than reform, we are seeing a consolidation of power.

UPDATE: After a week, Dr. Brown has returned control of judiciary and public prosecutions to the AG. Option 1: this created such a conflict of interests that public pressure forced the move. Option 2: he did what he needed to do.  Time will tell.
