Labour is demanding an inquiry into how classified defence documents came to be found at a bus stop in Kent. In a statement John Healey, the shadow defence secretary, said:
The loss of classified documents that cover a wide range of vital areas of national security is as embarrassing as it is worrying for ministers.
It’s vital the internal inquiry launched by the Secretary of State establishes immediately how highly classified documents were taken out of the Ministry of Defence in the first place and then left in this manner.
