Now here's something weird - BOTH of the articles by Huband have been pulled from the FT website - or at least the links are dead. I hadn't looked for them before, because I read them from cached pages I found on Google, but they seem to be gone from FT. Does that mean they don't stand by those stories and backed away from them, or did someone get to them, or were they in danger with the UK's "Official Secrets Act" and backed away from their own reporting, or what??? Anyone know?
