If the content of this article is true (and I have reason to believe it is, having been the person who tipped off The Register, based on information from a third party), there is almost certainly nothing we can do to change what happens. But we can help to educate politicians and journalists - the more people write to their MPs, talk to journalists etc about what is really happening, the better. I think it's particularly important that this should be reported by the press in a cynical way: that requires journalists who understand the issues. I think there may be something in the Observer tomorrow. (Please don't buy the Sunday Times...) More generally, the conflict of which this is a part is really hotting up now.
