Secret British military papers have been found at a bus stop in the south of England, revealing plans for a warship’s controversial voyage off Crimea last week and a prolonged presence in Afghanistan.
The 50 pages of documents were found in a rain-soaked heap behind a bus stop in Kent early last Tuesday morning, according to the BBC, which said the Ministry of Defence had begun an investigation.
While some of the papers are categorized as “official sensitive,” a relatively low level of classification, one on Britain’s future plans in Afghanistan was marked “Secret UK Eyes Only,” and was addressed to the private secretary of Defence Secretary Ben Wallace.
According to the BBC, the paper outlines “highly sensitive recommendations” for the U.K.’s military footprint in Afghanistan after NATO has followed U.S. President Joe Biden’s plan to withdraw all forces by September 11 this year.

When I read this first sentence, it was almost as if the source was the Babylon Bee.
It is not only our US Government that is filled with gross incompetence among the work force.

Welcome aboard, RWV.
Sounds like the cat is out of the bag now.
It won’t take long to figure out who did this.
I think it was that “woke” lesbian, with the personality disorder that works for the CIA.
Plenty thanks, Sir.
During the Falklands War, a Ministry of Defence official let a briefcase with secret papers get stolen. They were dropped back off at the MOD with a note reading: “I may be a common thief, but I love my Queen and I love my country, and whoever let these get stolen should be shot!”
A rare breed of crook.
