I didn't say they were hacked. I said 'therotically' and gave a list of examples.
And hacking attempts on the rest of us are still illegal and wrong. As for sharing bad secrets then ok, certainly the press have published documents obtained illegally before and if it's in the public interest then those newspapers do that precisely because the voters can then decide for themselves.
However, it's still illegal and if it's a foreign power doing it we should be upset. As after all if they're only hacking one side it's clear what they're up too.
I don't want people hacking this country, hacking our political parties or hacking you.
