First,we had 2 lost disks,with 25,000,000 personal details!

THEN, a Hard Drive sent to IOWA. (Well,why not?)

THEN 2 Top Secret folders left on trains!

THEN Government Minister's (Hazel Blears) laptop stolen!

THEN, the latest fiasco of un-encrypted files being stolen!

And all the Government does is fight among themselves,and say:

"Don't worry suckers! It will we be OK when you have ID Cards and we pass your details to the 24 States of the European Union!

I don't know what its called "oxy moron) i think mixing two words that should never go together "Government Security"...

"Military intelligence" Welfare Benefits" etc etc.

Answer 2

I think they leave things on the Trains  etc to Embarrass there Bosses,,They should have them for Spying,,,taking a top secret document out of its Jurisdiction,,,

Answer 3

The public sector in the UK has very little independent accountability.

If things go wrong they always loose the evidence or find a scapegoat instead of ovehauling the department.

They tend to be staffed by people who don't have a clue and wouldn't last 5  minutes in the private sector. But because there is little true accountability the just get away with being useless as long as they keep their heads down

Answer 4

Yes!I agree with the questioner!The next word that comes to mind is!! BROWN!

ID cards will be a good thing again, only if some computer from the back of beyond doesnt hold all your info. We need another cold war, nothing ever got left a train or sent to Iowa unless it was in a Michael Caine film.
