Of course spooks snoop. More power to them

Can I just share with you my satisfaction that the CIA has access to my emails and all the social media sites I visit from time to time? This has been a big story in the liberal press: US fascist spooks can access loads of details about you through the online stuff you’ve been doing. It never occurred to me for a single second that they wouldn’t. And if they hadn’t been doing that, I’d want sackings all round. They’re SPIES, for God’s sake. What are they meant to do?

The press cannot on the one hand complain when the security services fail to pick up Islamist savages who are plotting, in their Nelson or Akron bedists, to blow us all to kingdom come – and then, moments later, complain that our privacy might have been invaded because they’re watching us watching Ukrainian Dogwitch XXX on some Texan porno channel. More power to their elbows, I would argue.
