FULL DISPATCH
π¬π§πΊπΈ The eyewitness who reported three white vans outside RAF Fairford says, by her account, that the base's 24-hour security line rang and rang with no answer, and a day later no police had come to interview her Karen Kwiatkowski titled her write-up after Benny Hill, and the details earn it. A farmer comes home in the middle of the night, sees vans partly blocking traffic and five men who plainly aren't local, calls the base guarding B-1 bombers and gets nothing, calls 999, then warns her neighbors on WhatsApp. Within about 35 hours the five are out on bail, the government has nothing to say, and the only eyewitness hasn't been asked a single question. Her point as a former Air Force officer is about competence. Nobody planning anything real parks three white vans outside a bomber base. And a base that can't answer its own phone in the middle of the night has a bigger problem than five men on the road. @karen4the6th @WeTheBrandon
