War Crimes

Asked if the Prime Minister had any response to the story today in The Daily Mail that had quoted "senior Whitehall sources" that he could be put on trial for war crimes, the PMOS said that he was not aware of any Whitehall sources who had that view, therefore he did not have a view either. As we had said consistently, the British Government abided by international law.

Iran

Asked if the Prime Minister had been made aware that Iran was repatriating its assets held abroad, including those of Britain, the PMOS replied that as he had said yesterday, he was not aware of anything to do with this story. What we would continue to do was to deal with the matter in hand in terms of Iran, and that was to get it to abide by international obligations.

Squirrels

Put that it was thought that the legislation on grey squirrels was happening on Sunday, but it now was on the Order Paper today for a Written Ministerial Statement, and what was going on, the PMOS said that the problem with squirrels was that they always popped up where people didn't want them to be! The PMOS said it was another case of squirrels getting out of hand.
