The claim that the UK gov leaked this appears to be complete conjecture. It may be correct, but there are no facts, even circumstantial, to back this claim.

Until the the UK gov confirms political leaking, its is all we have. So, either we have a bit of a chat and see what we can work out, or we say nothing because its conjecture and so forth. Are you suggesting that we cant have that conversation? Or are you suggesting that we all think we are talking god's fact and are deluding ourselves? Yes, we know it is conjecture.

Remind me, when was the last time a government freely admitted to leaking information for political reasons?

I never said any of that. The title states it as fact, there are no facts.

I know.

I had to go with the implication of what you said because the bare bones of it were too obvious to have been worth posting.

I know your excited but please don't put words in my mouth.
