Hoon can't be finished because as a minister he cannot possibly make a mistake.
I can still remember Lord Trefgarne, Minister for Defence procurement making a ludicrous statement after the High Leg Combat Boot/fatigue injury scandal saying that "we don't make mistakes" in reference to ministers at the MoD and procurement.
If they always get procurement right, then who am I to question anything else? After all, he is a peer of the realm and a former minster so he must be right and he couldn't tell a lie!
(I have a sudden urge to shout Aitkin, Archer, Profumo.........all good honest men.)
