To DUers who are residing in the UK right now: [View all]

It may yet be too soon but I'm curious as to what UK residents think about officials at Heathrow detaining Glenn Greenwald's partner today (yesterday?). Also, what has been the press' response? Is it a ho-hum story or is it front-page news or maybe something in between? Again, it's probably too early to answer this but I'm just curious as to how this is playing with the natives.

Thanks,
LTH

Does seem rather odd and over the top. dipsydoodle Aug 2013 #1

Since you ask, I'm not at all surprised Greenwald's partner was detained. Denzil_DC Aug 2013 #3
