The Belgrano...

If you shoot someone in the back, it isnt easy convincing the police he was attacking you. They may work on the idea he was running away from the confrontation. We werent at war with Argentina by the way. Our rules of engagement were defensive, and unless and until Parliament are informed otherwise, preemptive attacks are, by our own laws, war crimes. Doing dirty deeds on behalf of a bloodstained dictator over the border is not a legitimate defence measure.

But like I said, so long as her tomb has a sprung dance floor and so long as she doesn't die the same day as Scargill, (I don't like champagne THAT much) I'll be content.
