We have seen recently on the news that reporters have gone to Zimbabwe
and reported undercover. That is a clear violation of the law of
Zimbabwe which does not permit foreign journalists to report from
within its borders - a fact that the journalists themselves reported
in a clear admission that they were fully aware that they were
breaking the law.
So would you wish to see those journalists arrested in the UK and put
on trial for their crime? Yes or no Sue?
