Scotland Yard attempts to criminalize journalism

Read this quote prepared by Scotland Yard in consultation with the MI5 slowly and carefully:

“Additionally the disclosure, or threat of disclosure, is designed to influence a government and is made for the purpose of promoting a political or ideological cause. This therefore falls within the definition of terrorism…”

Glenn Greenwald’s contention is proven true by the above words of the British Government. Greenwald is contending: “For all the lecturing it doles out to the world about press freedoms, the UK offers virtually none…They are absolutely and explicitly equating terrorism with journalism.”
