Don't know anything about Peter Hain, but I like what he's saying about Putin.

"Don't know anything about Peter Hain"
He's one of the more left wing of Blair's inner circle. Was very prominent anti-Apartheid protester in the 70's and 80's (his parents are South African iirc). Reportedly the only member of the cabinet to still maintain membership of CND.
