In which case I wonder how the previous Attorney General was in a position to call off the Serious Fraud Office's investigation into bribery and corruption after evidence emerged that payments totalling £1bn over more than a decade had been made by BAE to Prince Bandar in the £43bn Al Yamamah arms deal.
They claim they are the Government's legal advisors, so what are they going to do about it? I will have a think about this, but I don't think they can let themselves off the hook quite so easily.
