I love this bit of classic British understatement: "The MoD has been consistently economical with the truth on this matter."

And the MoD proves it in their statement at the end of the article. What comfort is there in being let off "for lack of evidence" after a THREE YEAR investigation? Who the hell is going to risk having that happen to them?

I once had this conversation with an Englishman in the British Virgin Islands:

"How's Mike being doing?"

"Not well."

"Oh, that's too bad. What's wrong?"

"He's dead."
