Mandelson Circus

Lord Mandelson continues to ignore public sensibilities and in so doing fails to recognise the dark side. Judgment is questionable much like the George Osbourne case. Al-Megrahi was released from a Scottish prison on compassionate grounds amid strong protestations of denial of deals favouring a business/oil marriage. A (conditional?) deal was subsequently successful. Allegedly, al-Megrahi had terminal prostate cancer and 3-months to live. Reports were being published that al-Megrahi was battling from "advanced-stage" cancer back in October 2008. It would seem that battling with "advanced-stage" cancer since October 2008 suddenly becomes urgent. What if he had died in a Scottish prison? A (verified) post-mortem would then provide closure. But when the required outcome appears to be release then it becomes likely that a Kelly-style death would happen: mysterious and highly suspicious, although a body would be predictably unidentifiable or totally absent.

But prove it? - DA

The original conviction was for involvement in the bombing that caused the deaths of 270 people on board Pan Am Flight 103.

Lockerbie

Predictable propaganda involved jubilant festivities celebrating the successful outcome of release and repatriation to Libya of this legally convicted murderer (20th August 2009). Appeals against conviction have proper protocols, unless government decrees otherwise. For a year (and more) before this, such 'suffering' produced the desired effect. Al-Megahri still lives - 3 months on. And in Libya, not the Brown country. On the basis of assessment by particular Scottish doctors, this can be no surprise.

Miraculous recovery from disease is not entirely unknown. Famously, Ernest Saunders managed it and was so convincing a 5-year prison sentence in Ford Open Prison was reduced to 10 months. This prison was an ideal first placement for this unknowable early release. What a coincidence! Almost preempting the future.
