Letter: Alexander query
The situation is a little more nuanced than that. Among the questions I am planning to put to Ms Alexander is why a politician who has had the good fortune to be granted a complete amnesty with regard to a criminal offence that she has committed should consider it "reasonable" that the public - who pay her salary and those of the officials who granted her the amnesty, and who in general are not granted amnesties when they break the law - should be denied all access to any information whatsoever about the reasons why her amnesty was granted.
