Air Commodore Baber says that 'the buck stopped with him', and that the IPT got it wrong.......
What are the implications of that?
Should he resign?
Has he opened himself up to a civil prosecution by relatives?
Is he the only person so far (in this or the Hercules inquest) to admit to any error/responsibility? If so should he be applauded?
What are the implications for subsequent witnesses?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not on a witch hunt. He seems to be the first person in recent times to admit to any responsibility in any way, as opposed to the 'lack of recollection' approach - which is actually very refreshing. I was just wondering if this opens up a new aspect on how proceedings may develop?
