> a little gov site

it's the main website for the UK government, not sure if mistaken or a sly little dig at the UK.

That doesn't necessarily mean it isn't just an old laptop in a cupboard somewhere in Whitehall with the network cable duct taped on so that the cleaner doesn't accidentally disconnect it.

With a sticker saying "Beware of the leopard".

In a locked disused lavatory in the basement?

No, not since a minor civil servant was sent armed with a cheap biro to cross that out and write the word 'austerity', after May hunted down the leopard for shoes.

No dig, just mistaken. I wasn't paying close attention to the URL and thought the report was hosted by a possibly smaller UK gov site. Didn't realize it was THE main gov.uk site!

If I could edit my original comment to give precedence to the original report link, I would!
