Re: Shadow Immigration Minister Arrested

i think the sensible thing would be to wait fer the D.P.P.to decide what if anything needs to be brought before the courts. after all its now down to them.

Hadn't realized Socialists like David Winnock were Cameron clones. He must have more support in the commons than I thought.

It is likely that one of the 'heads to roll' in this affair will be that young woman Sargeant at Arms, who let the police search without a warrant.
She is a civil servant on the security staff of the House of Commons.
When she was appointed her suitability was in serious doubt - so much so that the Queen refused to grant her the usual 'ceremonial audience' upon appointment.

Re: Shadow Immigration Minister Arrested

it occured to me, that ANYONE who leaks goverment information, has got to be more susceptible to blackmail, n theres some very nasty agencies around the world.

Re: Shadow Immigration Minister Arrested

looking like Boris Johson.. mayor of london, may well have "tipped off" David Cameron before Mr Green offices were visited by the police... at a commons select commitee Boris said he did not recall speaking to Mr Cameron on the day of the event... but later admited he had spoken to Cameron twice on that day.. ummm ..looks a bit dodgy.. or as Boris would say.. the kak may hit the fan.

Dodgy? If Brown can leak home office information in 1985, then so can the Conservatives. Its in the public interest to be informed.

Boris did not inform the public.. he informed David Carmeron... he didn't even inform the select commitee.

Re: Shadow Immigration Minister Arrested

Sorry are you saying, Mr Green is dodgy for leaking information relevant to the public, and when Brown did it, it was okay?

Re: Shadow Immigration Minister Arrested

I'm saying that Boris informed Cameron of the arrest of Mr Green... before the event.. which is illegal ..and if this action was done in a normal arrest would be deemed as a "tip off"

Re: Shadow Immigration Minister Arrested

If this is true, and illegal, then he should and will be prosecuted. As what Green did was not illegal, to show the public what a mess labour have made, and embarrass them, then I don't think the police will pursue it.

of course it is illegal to distribute information under the secrets act.. it is written in stone..no matter ..the elected Mayor of London..therefore the head of the police in london..has tipped off someone about an lawful arrest of a citizen.. are you saying that a because that citizan is an MP then restrictions should be made?

There was no breach of the official secrets act, Labour back in the 90s were pushing out leaks on a daily basis, but there again Labour were saying a lot of things in the 90s which they haven't actually backed up with action, can't remember them say that they were going to plunge Britain into debt that will take 30 to 40 years to pay off

Arrest that man! Oh wait, he's leaking in the interests of the public. Rightly so. Why should governments cover up failings that do not put national security at risk! The people have a right to know.
