Linda and all,

  Make no mistake the UK LEA's will be storing whatever data
they intercept that they feel is relevant to whatever it may be
relevant to as well as whatever other data that has a particular
political use at some point later or even sooner.

  I am also sure that Scottland Yard will share this data that will
no doubt be stored selectively, with the USG as well.
