After reading the above post's I can see that the British forces have been fighting each other for control (or for one of the other forces not to have it) of intelligence for far too long now.
I have a novel solution to end this in fighting once and for all.
Why don't we just ask the "other side" what they are hiding from us, and where!
This will allow two things:
1. It will let us know which of the services was actually looking for the right information in the first place.
2. It will give us time to really get stuck into each other in our ongoing fight against integrated intelligence jointery.
The war on terror may be winnable, the war on jointery however.........
