    Why is accountability not enforced for these guys??

    Government: “we are going to hold am inquiry to hold those responsible to account”

    Those responsible: “well ok but we’re not going to cooperate”

    Government: “damn. Checkmate”

    But probably they don’t really want to hold anyone to account, because then they might have to be held to account later on…

    Boris: “Whoar biff blimey! It fell out my pocket! Honestly. I got the big calls right but managed to lose my phone. I apologise with humbleness and humility. Snore.”

    Surprising no one Boris has once again lied and broken a promise.

    I’ll be glad when this idiot and his toxic party sink back into the swamp they came from.

    Didn’t the Tories bring in some legislation that would enable the government to store all our private communications? I know this buffoon will argue that the law is only supposed to apply to the little people. It doesn’t count for old Etonians.

      It’s just a classic conservative move to bring about laws they have no intention to apply to themselves.

      We see it happen over and over. At this point you’d be a fool to believe what they do is for the good of the people rather than just furthering their own interests.

      Authorities could just switch it on in a shielded room. Military has those, cell phone designers do, so they can get access. Then plug it into a forensics laptop (not connectable) and be done with it.
