'We all have lessons to learn,' says Downing Street. But have they now realised that the sort of propaganda tricks which may have served governments well in the past are much more likely to be rumbled today? It is not only the Government which has access to the internet. Every claim made will be scrutinised more closely, and by more people, than ever before. Nothing will corrode trust more than to be caught out trying to insult the intelligence of the British public.

Tony Blair needs to take urgent steps to ensure his Government shares information in a more professional, open way. If he wants to persuade Britain of the just case for military action as a last resort, and there is a just case, his Government can hardly afford to shoot itself in the foot again.


I always have believed that the internet will be the greatest boon to mankind in so many ways.
