Cameron: No mystery, no inquiry

David Cameron, prime minister, comments on the decision to release Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset al-Megrahi:

“I don’t think there’s any great mystery here.

“I don’t need an inquiry to tell me it was a bad decision. It was a bad decision.

“Releasing the Lockerbie bomber, a mass murderer, was completely wrong.

“He showed his victims no compassion. They were not allowed to die in their beds at home.

“That was not a decision taken by BP, it was a decision taken by the Scottish government.”
