Surprise surprise.... Bush trying to pull the same crap as not being held accountable to the world court for Americans......ain't happenin' in Britain 'Shoot-to-kill' demand by US Martin Bright, home affairs editor Sunday November 16, 2003 The Observer Home Secretary David Blunkett has refused to grant diplomatic immunity to armed American special agents and snipers travelling to Britain as part of President Bush's entourage this week. In the case of the accidental shooting of a protester, the Americans in Bush's protection squad will face justice in a British court as would any other visitor, the Home Office has confirmed. The issue of immunity is one of a series of extraordinary US demands turned down by Ministers and Downing Street during preparations for the Bush visit. These included the closure of the Tube network, the use of US air force planes and helicopters and the shipping in of battlefield weaponry to use against rioters. CC
