You "blame the government" (or should I say conservatives) for everything.

Yesterday it was raining, the governments fault I expect.

The most recent IMS (International military services) report states that the company has saved 30 million quid by defending this and getting the bill reduced, seeing as that's government owned perhaps that's the place to start for compensation, they've and by extension we have profited by her continued imprisonment
