Of course and so did I so it was all “in house” you might say but different houses…..

Surely politicians don’t say anything that is sensitive on open media that can be hacked.What a great way of double bluffing though 🙂

Hah – don’t you believe it, Linc!

Bet they were from the Met, Special Branch, mostly keep their mouths shut.

I knew a couple of Special Branch officers and a few of their “friends” very well in the late 60s and many stories were exchanged in the shadier haunts of the West End. Great fun….;)

:D, well, it keeps him occupied, innit.

Of course, Linc! Which is why all the huffing and puffing and indignation is quite amusing.

[QUOTE=snafu;2081673]I’ve had enough of posting great tracts of script at you lot just to be told ‘make it shorter‘, so I pose a question and leave it for you bu@@ers to put something.

That’s it snafu, I bet you have upset Chas now. It used to occupy his day reading all of your threads, now he will have to do the housework instead…….:highly_amused:

Been going on for years snafu, but it’s nice to be forewarned, just in case,you can’t trust anyone these days, (‘Specialy in the EU).
Bet they have been bugging us for years, I know they have me!!

Since we are all bugging each other to a greater or lesser extent it is hardly a surprise. But now it has been “whistleblown” the attendant media attention will result in the need for some very adept US diplomacy.
