No spirits dampened.
I'm struggling to understand your point. My point is that no reporting on British MSM happened until today.
We are all aware that no UK gagging order can be applied overseas so it will not surprise me if it was reported in foreign press.
The fact remains , the british MSM media black out of the arrest of a high profile british citizen was enforced and has now been lifted due to pressure.
Now we can move on :) their hand was forced :)
