Security at military bases requires onging monitoring and intervention. In this case the threat was discovered and action taken to prevent any incursion. It is a success not a failure. #wato

The UK Daily Mail obviously did not like the results of its own poll. Its own graphic portrays 75% as less than 50%. #UKPolitics #Brexit #EuropeanUnion

Murder is barbaric and wrong. It's wrong if it's committed by individuals, and wrong if it's committed by the state. Governments shouldn't murder their citizens, no matter how despicable they are. And they absolutely should not be killing people like Christa Pike 30 years after their crime!
