For your own good?

During his time in London, Salam Pax visited both the Hutton Inquiry and the House of Commons. His report on them in today's Guardian has an interesting conlusion:

I also went to the House of Commons a couple of days ago to watch the debate on the role of the UN in Iraq, and I can tell you: that being an Iraqi and seeing that and the bit of the Hutton Inquiry yesterday, is quite strange. It is like listening to your parents discuss how they should bring you up; it is your life, but you are not making the decisions.
