Enjoy, it's like a Daily Mash article.
“He’s obviously never engaged in genocide, or espionage, but he has sabotaged quite a few nappies in his time, though I didn’t tell them that at the US embassy.”
😀
I'm amazed that box is even an option... yes m'lud I'm a terrorist... can I come in? 😯
I think that's more under "catch people for false declaration on the form"- it makes a new offence out of old acts. But it's still funny.
The round trip took about 10 hours
Plenty of time to arrange the photoshoot with Teh Grauniad outside the embassy then......
Not a guardian photoshoot- had a google and he's a freelance photographer
How [s]convenient[/s] lucky.
😉
Maybe it'll teach him to read the actual questions on these forms rather than just going down the list and ticking the boxes.
Funny though.
I signed the Official Secrets Act forms 20 years ago, and they may have now changed, but they used to have the questions along the lines of:
23- Have you ever been convicted of a crime?
24- Have you ever been convicted of an act of manslaughter or murder?
25- Have you ever been convicted of an act of genocide?
