Wayne Brittenden's Counterpoint

From Sunday Morning, 11:40 am on 23 June 2013

Edward Snowden's latest revelations were a huge embarrassment for the UK Government. Foreign politicians and diplomats attending two G20 Summit meetings in London in 2009 had their phone calls monitored and their computers intercepted, on UK Government instructions. Wayne looks at the background of spying, British style, and raises some new questions. Chris follows up with Thomas Beagle of the NZ Council for Civil Liberties and American history professor Norman Pollack.
