  • Unmanned Russian vehicles have been discovered lurking next to deep-sea communications cables.
  • The Ministry of Defence had credible intelligence that superyachts owned by Russian oligarchs may have been used to conduct underwater reconnaissance.
  • The navy has discovered other sensors planted on the sea bed. The UK government is looking at requiring technology and energy companies to work more closely with the military and fund the protection of underwater infrastructure.

          No, where did I do that? I said it’s not unreasonable to assume that a politician has a journalist in their contact list. For example because a journalist tried to contact them, hence adding themselves to their conversation list. Or because the politician does sleazy and/or illegal business messaging journalists, because of course they would. Again resulting in having a journalist in their contact list.

          Not being surprised that someone does something illegal doesn’t at all mean I’m supporting or defending it.
