The secret services must become more transparent if they are to halt the spread of damaging conspiracy theories and increase trust in the Government, claims a leading think tank.Yep. That's a grand idea. Somehow it seems to be strangely (but not too strangely) fitting the general direction of the Political Correctness movement.
I would also recommend to rename the Secret Service into Public Service. Let the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions manage it in a transparent way, with daily reports to Indie. Or, maybe, Minister for Women and Equality could take it over, having in mind to achieve equal representation of British women in the service.
As for the "leading think tank": someone must make sure to keep at least a window open there. Cause, you know, "transparent secret service" is surely an oxymoron. And what is an oxymoron if not a result of having some morons in a room lacking oxygen?

I would thought a ore transparent secret service would be able to operate more effectively/// Imagine wht near invisible agents could do!
Oh... Uh...
Thanks, Jams, you always look at things in a totally new angle. It is just my bad - I should have taken that think tank more seriously...
A few months ago I was headed home from work when I saw an advertisement on a (public) bus: Join the Secret Service.
I thought it was quite funny, as I figured they'd be a bit more discreet in their recruiting methods.
BTW, I think James has a point. :)
Just a sec: you mean these Treasury folks with tough-looking haircuts and sunglasses who surround the POTUS, his spouse and other VPs and VIPs? Wow, that's a cool job: they could give you a walkie-talkie, a gun and sunglasses!
And re Jams - he usually does, I am used to standing corrected by him.
P.S. Mossad is on the Internet too these days.
