Has anyone actually read the Chilcot Report?
The Chilcot Report on the invasion of Iraq consists of 12 volumes adding up to some 2.6 million words. Even the Executive Summary runs to 145 pages.
According to an item in the “Guardian” newspaper, on average people read about 250 words a minute so, on that estimate, it would take 10,400 minutes or about 173 hours to read the whole of the Chilcot Report.
Assuming you spent eight hours on it every day and took weekends off, that makes digesting the whole report about a month’s full-time work.
I repeat: has anyone actually read the Chilcot Report?
