Glen Oglaza, political correspondent
William Hague has said he takes "full ministerial responsibility" for a bungled diplomatic mission in Libya which led to SAS troopers and a "junior diplomat" being captured by armed rebels.

The team was eventually freed and left Libya on Sunday evening on board HMS Cumberland.
It was an operation that descended into farce but could just as easily have ended in tragedy.
The Foreign Secretary told MPs he had authorised the "dispatch of a small British diplomatic team" to "initiate contacts with the opposition" and "to assess the scope for closer diplomatic dialogue".

  • FAIL! next time roll in with a luxury chopper, have 20 bitches run out first, ,go find another counterfeiter since you probably killed the first one now just to blame someone else for your "FAIL" so find a better one and hand him a "get out of jail card" , spend tons of peoples money "secretly" and then follow U.S's footsteps and "BAIL-OUT" and let the people pay more, work for less, and suffer to fix the problem you created by miss-spending, and supporting terrorist groups including Israel
