The delay with the Chilcot report is misunderstood
There is nothing sinister about the failure to publish before the general election.
Much of the political and media outrage over the further delay in publication of the Chilcot report into the Iraq war is exaggerated and misunderstands what such an inquiry involves. Of course, it would have been much better if the report had been published earlier, and the delay has damaged public confidence. But there is nothing sinister about the failure to publish before the general election.
