UK FOI process is broken, exhibit 25,327:
- Six months ago I asked @DefenceHQ for details of 5 airstrikes in which civilians were allegedly killed. It was rejected on account of size.
- I reduced it to 3 airstrikes. Same again
- So I asked about just ONE strike. The response:
These incidents allegedly occurred in Libya in 2011. I asked other nations the same questions - some rejected them on national security grounds, others - particularly Denmark and Norway - provided significant details.
None of the others hid behind the size limit excuse
For context in February top UK journalists together accused the British government of undermining the Freedom of Information process https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-55988252">https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-5...
