Hi Chaps,<br>
<br>
These are interesting topics.<br>
Maybe I am wrong, but I thought this was a Linux related mailing
list ?<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>

<div>Today's it's spun as European Human Rights. Yesterday it
would have been spun as the great tradition of British Press
Freedom. Take your pick. <br>
<br>
At the expense of ruining a good story, the judgement (as
opposed to the spin) upholds the government's actions but
notes that the law is poorly drafted.<br>

<div>During detention, there is no statuary mechanism for the
detainee to admit that they have privileged original documents
in their possession and to ask for a magistrate able to seal
them to the court. This is both unreasonable and inequitable.
<br>
<br>
The way these things are usually done are to obtain the
services of a lawyer who arranges for them to be declared at
customs. No one in the civil service seems to have considered
that anyone would be stupid enough to attempt to smuggle
original legal documents through 'nothing to declare'. <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>My moral - don't play at being a spy. The British taking
spying far too seriously, and are better at it than most.
Detention is nothing much to be worried about. The time to
worry is when the professional spooks invite you politely to
leave through the special private exit (before customs,
detention ot who have legally entered the country). During the
troubles, if you knew where the door was, you could see them
taking away folk out from Leeds-Bradford whose records would
say they'd never boarded the plane in Ireland. <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>For what it's worth, if you ever want to get documents out
of the country without the British spying on you, just ask a
frenemy to ship them FedEx. That's US of A, and they take care
of their own.<br>
