Incognito's dad was an ex copper and his family dumped him into a boarding school. He seeks affirmation and love from strong male types but always expects rejection.

You can't read this crap because minestrone is on your ignore list.
Damn, I'm sure it's interesting and relevant as well.

The short-sightedness of that is mind-boggling.

Originally posted by PM-Junkie View PostI realise that this is way above your head and beyond your obviously limited intelligence, but if there is a threat to national security then it is up to the police and the security services to police it (you may notice the big clue in the fact that "police" is a verb and an organisation), not power companies or their subcontractors. The level of information they divulged was clearly way beyond advising them to cancel holidays.
I still can't figure out if you are indeed a complete moron, or if you are just here on a big wind up.
BERR officials passed a strategy document belonging to the "environmental protest community" to E.ON
I'm guessing the protestor's strategy document details what they plan on doing to disrupt the power station
Government officials forwarded a Metropolitan police intelligence document to E.ON, detailing the movements and whereabouts of climate protesters in the run-up to demonstration.
I'm guessing that it's to advise them Joe Bloggs is 10 miles away from you on such and such a day indicating a sneaky attack.
E.ON passed its planning strategy for the protest to the department's civil servants
That's going from E.ON to the government detailing what they're doing about the protest
BERR and E.ON tried to share information about their media strategies before the protest, and civil servants asked the energy company for press contacts for EDF, BP and Kent police.
Erm, what's so horrifyingly wrong about that?
Is it all of the above that worries you or just a single point?
Now getting back to the Guardian scaremongering, none of that material would be protectively marked Secret.

Originally posted by realityhack View PostI think your response was a tad out of proportion PMJ. So what if the information shared was for more than staff allocation? It's key infrastructure and as such is a legitimate intelligence priority.
I'm beginning to think it is a sockpuppet - so perhaps best not to rise to the bait any more.
