  • BBC News – MI5, MI6 and GCHQ ‘spied on lawyers’

    British intelligence agencies have policies allowing staff to access confidential communications between lawyers and their clients, official documents have revealed. The guidance was disclosed for the first time at a tribunal which examines complaints against MI5, MI6 and GCHQ. The lawyer-client relationship is generally protected by strict rules. Campaigners said the disclosure had "troubling implications […]

    This is wrong. Wrong, Wrong, Wrong. Why not go the whole hog and have no right to legal representation and public hangings while we are at it. What next? Bug the confessional, the doctor’s examination room. How many people have dedicated their lives (and indeed their liberty) over the centuries so that we could have a fair system where lawyer / client confidentiality was sacrosanct? Now, at the drop of a hat we are dragged back into a time contaminated (both literally and metaphorically) by excrement.

        Genuinely scary :spy:
        "Although scalar fields are Lorentz scalars, they may transform nontrivially under other symmetries, such as flavour or isospin. For example, the pion is invariant under the restricted Lorentz group, but is an isospin triplet (meaning it transforms like a three component vector under the SU(2) isospin symmetry). Furthermore, it picks up a negative phase under parity inversion, so it transforms nontrivially under the full Lorentz group; such particles are called pseudoscalar rather than scalar. Most mesons are pseudoscalar particles." (finally explained to a captivated Celestine by Professor Brian Cox on Wednesday 27th June 2012 )
