From : Annonymous

Q: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -= mi5 cost. of the operation -= -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= heres what a couple. of other people on usenet uk.misc had to say regarding the cost. of running such an operation... po have some sense grow up and smell reality. what. you are talking about po would take loads. of planning tens of thousands of pounds and lots of po people involved in the planning. execution and maintenance of it. you po. must have a very high opinion of yourself to think you are worth it. pm. but why and why you do you realize how much it would cost to keep pm. one person under continuous surveillance for five years think about pm all the man/hours. say they just. allocated a two man team and a pm supervisor. ok. supervisors salary say #30000 a year.. two men pm #20000 a year each. but theyd need to work. in shifts -- so it would pm be six men at #20000 which. with on-costs would work out at more like pm #30000. to the employer. pm. pm so were talking #30000 x 6.. #180000. plus say #40000 for the pm supervisor. #220000.. then youve got the hardware involved. and pm any transcription that needs doing.. you dont think the big boss pm would listen to hours and hours of tapes. do you. pm. pm so all in all you couldnt actually do. the job for much less than pm a quarter million a year. over five. years. what are you doing that makes pm it worth the while of the state to spend over one and a quarter. million pm on. you those are pretty much the sort of. calculations that went through my head once i stopped. to consider what it must be costing them to run this operation. the partial answer is there have been periods. when the intensity has been greater and times when little. has happened. in fact for much of 1993 and the first half of 1994 very little happened.. although i dont think that was for reasons. of money - if they can tap into the taxpayer theyre not. going to be short of resources are they the more complete answer is in. the enormity of what theyre doing. relative to the cost. to british pride of seeing their country humiliated for the persecution of their own citizens. isnt is worth the cost of four or five people to try to bring things to. a close in the manner they would wish to the government a. million or two is quite honestly nothing - if they can convince themselves of. the necessity of what theyre doing resources will not be the limiting. factor. 8091 .
