Wednesday, September 22, 2004London Evacuation Plans : Bye see you Sassoon (*)Secret Government plans for the mass evacuation of London were found on a commuter train. The plans were on 4 CDs discovered in a carrier bag on a commuter train between London and Gravesend, Kent. The person who discovered them contacted The SUN Newspaper and handed the information the The Metropolitan Police. It really beggars belief that information of this sort, regardless of the fact that the concept of such a plan was in the public domain, would not be encrypted and access control strongly regulated. There are some other questions still un-answered, who's carrier bag was it, someone within the wider Operation Sassoon team or a terrorist's? (*) The plans were code named Operation Sassoon.
