Lord Carter of Coles: This is your life

Lord Carter of Coles: This is your life



I find it rather disturbing when a public figure such as Baron Carter of Coles is able to hide his character from public view.

It appears that the government simply wheel him out to conduct so-called independent inquiries. I would like to know what qualifies him to be so appointed to make the recommendations that he does. It would appear that he is nothing more than a government yes man.

The fact that he was best man at Jack Straw's two weddings hardly qualifies him for such an important role. Nor that Tony Blair put him forward to become a baron. What did he do to earn such an award?

All I know is that his recommendations for private prisons, Titan Prisons, and the creation of the National Offender Management Service, have produced disasterous results.
