        Say, the Home Secretary is sort of responsible for overseeing GCHQ, isn't she? Isn't a former Home Secretary up for reelection soon?

        To be fair, this vuln was used by NSA under May, not Rudd. But an enterprising candidate should point out CURRENT response, yes.

        Lots more complex than that. Human errors always contribute to problems. Ignorance a large part. Think how hard Zika was fought.

        also: Conservatives in government have starved NHS of funding for *many* years, meaning IT still running Win XP systems.

        Thinking back to running an NHS IT compliance project a decade ago, with the system that got attacked, this doesn't inspire confidence.
