MPs are not elected and Ministers are not appointed to supervise or see who or what my communications are. And certainly no tax payer funded public employee has any business at all to poke his or her nose into my business for any reason at all. The only permissable reason for surveillance is as part of a criminal investigation and this must be only with Judicial authority, strictly limited, properly justified and the responsibility of a named individual in every instance.
