Quite. Even the Tories at their worst wouldn't have released a mass
murdering terrorist after 8 years just to gain favour with a corrupt
dictator for
some trade.


However, propping up corrupt regimes in the middle east and other foreign
parts WAS something of a speciality for the Conservatives and the American
government of the time.

I rather think that was in the interests of good trading relations at the
time.
