Government minister dumps documents in park bins !!!!!

[INDRANIL]

Cabinet minister Oliver Letwin has got himself into hot water, after a British newspaper exposed he was in the habit of dumping private correspondence and sensitive documents detailing Al-Qaeda activities and secret service operations into park bins near Downing Street.

The Daily Mirror reported that some of the documents dumped by Letwin in St James's Park, Westminster, close to Downing Street, contained the personal details of the minister's constituents, including names, phone numbers, email contacts and postal addresses.

One discarded file was reported to carry the advisory:

"UK Parliament Disclaimer: This email is confidential to the intended recipient. If you have received it in error, please notify the sender and delete it from your system."

One of the discarded documents is said to have described how Parliament’s intelligence and security committee – which examines the work of MI5, MI6 and GCHQ – "failed to get the truth" on Britain’s involvement in extraordinary rendition. Other documents related to Al-Qaeda's links with Pakistan, Burmese human rights campaigner Aung San Suu Kyi, the Dalai Lama, and Libya and Afghanistan.

Letwin, who is in charge of developing government policies, has acknowledged that he sometimes disposed of copies of letters in the park but denied that they were "sensitive".

How much careless they are huhh ?? This kind of people are generally used to be Government minister . Anyway don't worry have a nice time .

Sounds to me like Cabinet Minister Oliver Letwin should be fired immediately and/or thrown in jail if it turns out he is a traitor.

With the money he makes surely he can afford a new one, on a more serious note he should be heavily fined or suspended as this is careless and not befitting his status.

Really he need some

Could not agree more. . . he is in a position of power but does not have the decency to take care of the information of those he represents or employs.
