lol, read what I actually wrote. You will note I was replying to a comment which included "1b. There are other services, ... that the bad people can use immediately. This is not about stopping the bad people from encrypting their messages...", etc. I replied in that context using compatible language. Do you believe it's impossible for an MP or any party's researcher to break the law? If not, they should be subject to the same oversight as all others on whatever service. The numbers using the internal party communication channels will probably be in the hundreds. Not half the country then. I would have said exactly the same were it any party. The hypocrisy is risible regardless of who. Even, perhaps especially, the one I just voted for. Since Magna Carta in 1215 the principle has held that every citizen, up to and including the sovereign is subject to the same law. Not every citizen except the current administration. Exceptions must be justified and are regularly tested in the courts.
