What Nick Robinson says in his blog today is interesting:

I see absolutely no evidence that the attorney did anything other than what all previous occupants of his post would have done, ie to respond to a request from the Metropolitan Police for an injunction. He was, as he has claimed, acting in his capacity as http://www.raybani.com/ an independent lawyer not as a politician. The widespread disbelief which this assertion provokes probably means that the ancient post of attorney general will not survive – or at least not in this form – beyond Lord Goldsmith’s tenure.

I’m sorry to say it, but I couldn’t agree more.
