British foreign policy has significantly gone underground.
May 01, 2017, 16:41
Another reason for people to stop May in er...June:

"We’re fighting at least seven covert wars, using troops and secret drone strikes – in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan and Somalia. The reason they’re covert is because parliament wouldn’t approve and the public would be opposed. And also because most of these operations are illegal, though you would never know it by reading the media. So, this is critical – no parliamentary involvement, public opposition, illegality, very little media coverage. This is really serious: the government is operating outside serious democratic control."
