“With the summer of mass events we are all on high alert for terrorism. But we must also cast our eyes further afield and be prepared for even the most seemingly unfathomable,” said Nick Pope, who has worked with the Ministry of Defense for more than two decades.
“It has been a widely held belief in Ministry of Defense circles that "aliens" have been able to detect us for decades via TV and radio broadcasts,” he said.
Pope said aliens would come in a spirit of warmth, friendship and shared learning, but the government was also prepared for the worst scenarios such as alien attack and invasion.

I hope this guy isn’t too high up in the Government there.
If Aliens can fly 350,000 miles or however far they will have to come it is doubtful a Raptor,or Eurofighter Typhoon can even catch them no matter harm them.

Personally, I would put quotes around expert or maybe 'Expert?' would be better.
Finally, a lift to Planet Gore!!!
Response: I too am an expert on flying saucers and I wish to advise that many of the crews of flying saucers are gay- violently gay!
They have appeared a major sporting events for decades, we call them blimps. They could be Dirigibles, Zeppelins, or Blimps I Guess. Those English folks say and spell their words kinda funny sometimes.
