I don't THINK we have a secret service, but if you're in Cabinet or a civil servant there'll soon be restrictions on what you can say that means for them there might as well be a secret service.... okay I'm exaggerating, but I think they are enabling (or have just done so) some legislation that means employees of the state can't express their opinions on the government on pain of getting sacked. O_O I don't understand it fully but it sounds pretty dodgy. Only applies to civil servants and the like, though.
As for being sick... my weird throat hardly hurt today at all. Guess the antibiotics are working, dammit.
