Extraordinary if true. The police better have a really cast-iron reason for doing so - it's somewhat hard to imagine what that would be, in the case of a former UK ambassador. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_Murray

I know nothing about this guy, but in this tweet, its pretty clear why: https://twitter.com/CraigMurrayOrg/status/171333500612114051...

"If that is a crime, send me back to jail."

Well, yes, its been made pretty clear [1] that, this is indeed a crime in the UK. Now whether that is right or wrong, is for a million other people to argue about, but it is a crime.

And, in the replies, many were quick to tag police and cpsuk to let them know.

Yikes. That’s not exactly a great look.

I think Craig is someone who knows very clearly how power works, and that true evil is systematic and does not appreciate the limelight, yet he bravely persists.
