1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,800 Speaker 1: Devin Gray are UK correspondents with US Kevin. Hello, Hi Devin, 2 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: tell me how this happened? We have serving members of 3 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: Britain Special Forces with their identities online for years. 4 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 2: How yes, good question. Well, it looks like a couple 5 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,919 Speaker 2: of documents were posted online. They were meant to be 6 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:20,319 Speaker 2: for the British Army, really for those who served in 7 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 2: the British Army, but they were inadvertently made public for 8 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 2: more than a decade. The documents were published online without 9 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 2: password protection, and they contained details names code names used 10 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,200 Speaker 2: to refer to the Special Forces and their operations. Now 11 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:42,480 Speaker 2: the paper doesn't explicitly reveal these which units these soldiers 12 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 2: belonged to, or explanations of the code names, but quite frankly, Heather, 13 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 2: if you go online, or you happen to know anyone 14 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 2: in the military circus, you could work out whether the 15 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,279 Speaker 2: name soldiers were either serving in or affiliated with an 16 00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 2: elite unit like the SAS or the SBS. Now, the 17 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: newspaper that revealed this for Sunday Times says that the 18 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 2: publications were updated only a few months ago, and that 19 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 2: suggests that some of the soldiers named may even have 20 00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 2: been engaged in live operations at the time, very very 21 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: embarrassing for forces that say that confidentiality and keeping the 22 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,040 Speaker 2: names of those in the elite forces secret is imperative. 23 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: Que Hey, Now, how long can British Steel plant keep 24 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: going with the raw materials that have been secured. 25 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 2: It looks like they've got several months ahead. Now. You'll 26 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 2: remember we've been reporting over the last few weeks that 27 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 2: British Steel is the only place in the UK where 28 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 2: you can make virgin steel, in other words, steel not 29 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 2: from recycled steel or metal, but from the virgin elements, 30 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: as it were, the oars. And it had been bought 31 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 2: by a Chinese owner, jing Yi, and Jingy was then 32 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 2: reported to simply be running out of ingredients and refuse 33 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 2: to buy any more. They were going to let it 34 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,559 Speaker 2: run into the ground. British Steel is losing one point 35 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 2: four millions million New Zealand dollars a day, and I 36 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: think jin Ye may quite simply thought, well, we've had 37 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 2: enough anyway, the government's effectively nationalized it. But then the 38 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: battle was on to get these ingredients in place, because 39 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 2: once the blast furnaces go cold or are turned off, 40 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 2: they frankly will never be reheated and it takes a 41 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: lot of energy and time to get them back up 42 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 2: to speed. So the government we now know has received 43 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 2: fifty five thousand tons of blast. First coke that has 44 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 2: arrived from Australia are sixty six thousand tons of iron 45 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 2: ore pellets. Twenty seven thousand tons of iron ore fines 46 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 2: due to arrived from Sweden next week. The government's saying 47 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,799 Speaker 2: this is a brief and a sigh of relief for 48 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 2: the two seven hundred employees. But the question is, Heather, 49 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 2: how long can you keep that loss making plant going 50 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 2: and make it well a reasonable request from British taxpayers. 51 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, well that is the difficult thing, isn't it. Agavin 52 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: listener is always good to talk to you. Thank you, 53 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: will talk to you in a couple of days.
