Jack Straw Lied to Parliament
Secretary for Justice Jack Straw told the house of commons yesterday that he didn't know about the bugging of Tooting MP Sadiq Khan until the weekend just gone. It has come to light that he actually held a meeting on this very subject in December. This is London
Hansard 4 Feb 2008 : Column 660
The Secretary of State for Justice and Lord Chancellor (Mr. Jack Straw): With permission, Mr. Speaker, I should like to make a statement. As the House will be aware, there appeared in The Sunday Times yesterday allegations that conversations between my hon. Friend the Member for Tooting (Mr. Khan) and a constituent of his, Mr. Babar Ahmad, detained in prison on an extradition warrant, had been subject to covert recording when my hon. Friend visited Mr. Ahmad on two occasions in 2005 and 2006 at Her Majesty’s prison Woodhill. I was made aware of the burden of these allegations on Saturday afternoon.
This whole corrupted government should go and go now.
