Lets Hope they can start being more responsible in other areas too:-))
I agree Uggers,It was not in the publics Interest,too many lives could have been lost.

Hi Hilary,I too feel sorry for him,he only wanted to do his job.

Yes I think fair play to the British media for keeping quiet about this and fair play to Prince Harry for going out to Afghanistan along with the rest of the troops.

Shame the American press had to open their traps and put an end to his tour of duty but I can see why the British Army has felt the need to pull him out now the leak has been made.

I dont necessarily agree with them being out there in the first place but they have their job to do have followed their orders and I support the lads and lasses completely.

I agree with you Roxanne. The Press has acted responsibly and I hope that Harry stays safe now that the story has broken.

Me too,Uggs!
but they managed for 12 weeks which is some achievement:-))
Wasn't it the U.S press that leaked it?

In one word YES. I think our press were right. Feel sorry for Harry now, where can he go.

I'm surprised they managed it to be honest Rox - but then many papers have certainly made up for it today. But yes, it was the right thing to do. It was not in the public interest to know where he was and what he was doing.

I have to say I think the British Press have done 100% the right thing, I respect their decision to keep quiet about this.

My opinion of them has gone up.
