38. Meanwhile, in the UK, Blair is nervous because they're about to criticise

how the info was used and get "personal" and name names...."but also that it will criticise ministers' use of the material."

1//The Independent, UK--BUTLER TO SINGLE OUT INTELLIGENCE CHIEFS FOR BLAME IN WMD INQUIRY (Lord Butler of Brockwell is to defy the Government by including personal criticism of Britain's intelligence chiefs in his inquiry into the information they gathered about Saddam Hussein's weapons before last year's war. The Independent has learnt that the Butler inquiry has sent letters to three crucial witnesses outlining draft sections of next week's report that will criticise them directly…Downing Street is said to be "very worried", fearing the report will criticise the intelligence services for not making rigorous checks about its information on Iraq's arsenal before it was included in the dossier, but also that it will criticise ministers' use of the material.)
