THE ghost of Lord Hutton walked through Whitehall this week. The team that has been trying to discover the source of the leak of his report to the Sun newspaper on the day before its publication in January admitted that it had been unable to discover the guilty party. This is not surprising; very few government leak inquiries are able to point a finger at anybody. Trevor Kavanagh, the political editor of the Sun, said that he would take the identity of his source with him to the grave; he said that the story came from a long-standing source who had no axe to grind and who received no payment. If that is really so, why should anyone with access to the report want to leak it to Mr Kavanagh? His comment is disingenuous, surely?
