Mark Thatcher's 'grubby little deals'.

The Government have determined that Mark Thatcher's deals are to remain secret.

So just what 'grubby little deals' has he been involved with and why are the government so scared of releasing the papers that show those deals???

Surely the "freedom of information act" overrides any previous act if it is in the national interest apart from security reasons

to which I agree wholeheartedly.
Security has nothing to do with civilians and serves no purpose being in the public domain.

They are bandying his mothers name as well in these deals. Which I am sure they do not want to bring a previous prime minster's dodgey dealings to light.

Mark Thatcher has not lived in this country for decades so what are they covering up, they have no loyalty to him.

Mark Thatcher has been involved with deals involving the British government and some African nation for years.

Arms dealing is one of his business ventures(shhhhh)

Skoda were the most successful rally cars in their group.
They won something like 13 RAC group titles during the 70/80s.

As for the map, I think you're probably right.

I can remember sitting in a Skoda Estelle convertible at the Motor Show. Felt like I was in an American muscle car.
