"all UK links"
__________________________________________________________
Alright; THAT part shouldn't surprise me. I lived in the UK. The funny thing was hearing some of the British civil servants on the U.S. Air Force base (RAF Lakenheath) criticizing the U.S. and it's policies.

I strongly believe in freedom of speech but these folks were extremely anti-American. They were hired by the British Ministry of Defense.

Can you imagine the looks I got when I suggested they protest by refusing their pay check?

Then I suggested they ask to be transfered to a British base. They told me to mind my own @#$% business. Due to their access they were allowed to use many of the base facilities. They really liked our "Perks" (when you bring a lot of young adults to another country the quality of life is important. You have to give them some familiar things).

Fortunately they were in the minority. Most of the MOD folks were cool! Sorry for going so far off topic...
