There is more information here. It leaves you with a certain level of... uncertainty. Like "why was he writing a draft statement that said this in the first place?"

Time passes....

I've now read the original statement by Blunkett and am left wondering who hyped this whole thing into silliness. There does not seem to be any warning of imminent attack, only a general warning of what we all know already: we're a target and the enemy is utterly ruthless.

Because our government is a troop of dyslexic monkeys bashing typewriters with no hope of achieving anything meaningful.

Vile slander! We pay people to type for them, they just dictate.

The enemy is Ruthless? Hmm. Maybe we could send them some of our Ruths, assuming they're willing to go.

Would it solve anything? Probably not. Once the enemy is no longer Ruthless, they'll start claiming they're Heatherless.....
