The Telegraph is not a tabloid and this alleged leak from documents prepared by the European Network of Law Enforcement Technology Services (Enlets) has been very widely reported. The report was released by Statewatch - a non-profit organization founded in 1991 that monitors the state and civil liberties in the European Union.

Questioning the inclusion of this piece in HN is fair comment though do HN readers need your guidance as in your revealing "check!"s. Would pro-EU sentiment have been acceptable "a brilliant idea to stop criminals in their track"?
