Operation Kenova: Northern Ireland 'StakeKnife' Legacy Investigation (John Boutcher QPM)The Khan Review: Threats to Social Cohesion and Democratic ResilienceEssay: WikiLeaks and Empire, by Julian Assange, February 17, 2024
-- The Home Secretary has published the report of part 1 of the
Angiolini Inquiry on Thursday 29 February.
Part 1 of the inquiry has focussed on examining Wayne
Couzens’ career and previous behaviour.
The report establishes a definitive account of his conduct,
behaviour and performance leading up to his conviction, and
describes the red flags and opportunities that were missed.
The report makes 16 recommendations designed to ensure that
everything possible is being done to prevent those entrusted
with the power of the office of constable from abusing that
power.

Documents released by WikiLeaks shed light on a power struggle
within the highest offices of the Catholic Church. Amongst the
documents is a private letter written by Pope Francis. The
exitencecof this letter, addressed to the papal envoy Cardinal
Raymond Burke has been the source of much speculation in the media.
It is now published for the first time in full and with the Pope’s
signature.

The CIA's Historical Review Program on 16 September 2015 released
a collection of presidential briefing products written during the
Kennedy and Johnson presidential administrations. This large-scale
release of The President's Intelligence Checklists (PICLs) and The
President's Daily Briefs (PDBs) includes almost 2,500 documents
exclusively written for the president each day except Sunday. They
summarised the day-to-day intelligence and analysis on current and
future national security issues.
I've started off by listing the first few days before and after the
invasion of the then Czechoslovakia by Communist Russia on the 20th
August 1968. Note that some PICLs are still partially redacted.

This is the document on the controversial practice of Fracking
that the UK Government "conveniently" failed to release before
the General Election in 2015. DEFRA stated:
This paper is an early draft of an internal document; it is not
analytically robust. Work on it has since been discontinued.
The draft paper was intended as a review of existing literature.
It includes early, often vague, assumptions which are not
supported by appropriate evidence. These were never intended as
considered Defra positions or as statements of fact.
Containing no new evidence, the paper simply refers to data from
overseas studies which cannot be used to predict impacts in the
UK with any degree of reliability. The author of the paper was
not asked to consider, and did not have an in-depth knowledge of
the UK regulatory framework.
In June 2012, the Royal Society and Royal Academy of Engineering
report concluded that environmental (and health and safety) risks
can be managed effectively in the UK if operational best practices
are enforced through regulation. The UK has a rigorous and robust
regulatory regime which is fully capable of preventing and
managing any risks
DEFRA's Draft shale gas (Fracking) rural economy impact report July 2015 -- A Question of Trust
The Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Act 2014
[DRIPA 2014] completed its parliamentary passage in just four
days, receiving Royal Assent on 17 July 2014.
Emergency legislation was said to be needed in order to ensure
that UK law enforcement and security and intelligence agencies
could maintain their ability to access the telecommunications
data they need to investigate criminal activity and protect
the public. As part of the political agreement that secured
cross-party support for the Bill, the Home Secretary was
required (by DRIPA 2014 s7) to “appoint the independent
reviewer of terrorism legislation to review the operation and
regulation of investigatory powers”. This Report is the outcome
of that Review.

Following a 10-year battle between The Guardian newspaper
and Prince Charles, using the Freedom of Information Act,
Charles' personal memos (and some replies) have been
released to a largely-underwhelmed public. Are these the
ramblings of a Royal, renowned for his sometimes eccentric
behaviour, or something else? Personally I see them as
the missives of a man daring to question the practices of
a succession of governments not always serving the populace
as they should. What do you think?
