Matthew Adams @ythos.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I realise that this person who phoned in about the RAF Fairford vans believes that they 'fortuitously' saved the base with their timely intervention. It seems at least as likely that they messed up a security services operation by being unfortunately in the wrong place at the wrong time. 140
