An MP is secretly recorded by the security services when he speaks to a prisoner. The prisoner is the target, not the MP, but the press and the Opposition start a huge fuss about the Labour Party creating a police state.
Some idiot civil servants lose some important data discs, as they do, and the press and the Opposition rant about Labour Party incompetence, as if a Minister is standing behind every civil servant, watching their every move.
There is a nasty element in the UK twisting and distorting all sorts of events to show the Government in a bad light.
The Opposition need to start putting forward sensible arguments and the press need to report real news, not a lot of nonsense.
It is a real shame that years of democratic government have created an anti-democratic press and anti-democratic politicians.(All this was supposed to be in the same font, but the last sentence and this one have spontaneously changed. I will get the hang of this sort of thing eventually.)
