Gordon Brown

[Amusing Scrotum]

From a BBC article -


Mr Brown said the Iraq debate had now gone on for more than two years.

"We believe we were making the right decisions in the British national economic interest.

"Of course we have lessons to learn... about the way things were done, like the dossier.

"But at the end of the day we wanted the security of Britain and the British national interest to be advanced.

"Iraq of course being a democracy means the Middle East is a safer place now."

(Emphasis added.)

It looks like Gordon has "let the cat out of the bag."

Those sum up Gordon Brown's noises quite nicely. Thanks.

If by "Let the cat out of the bag" you mean, "made a meaningless, cover-all, ambigious 'sort-of-answer' with little actual relevence" than, yes, yes he has.
