    Wtf is this? The British version of Gestapo’s joy division? Fucking disgusting. Intelligence agencies shouldn’t exist outside war scenarios or valid EXTERNAL threats.

      Most countries have intelligence agencies for internal threats. How would you detect and prevent terrorist attacks without them?

      You see, that’s the difference between US and UK - the so called “Gestapo’s joy division” stops a lot of extremist plots. That’s why you have Trump and we don’t.
