within Europe, all e-mail, telephone, and fax communications are routinely intercepted by the United States National Security Agency, transferring all target information from the European mainland . . . to Fort Meade in Maryland,"
The study also asserted that the key to the eavesdropping operation was a system code-named "Echelon," designed to indiscriminately intercept the non-military communications of governments, private organizations, and businesses on behalf of the United States and its primary partners in the decades-old UKUSA signals intelligence alliance--Britain, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. Items of intelligence value are selected by computer identification of keywords provided by the UKUSA nations.

There are 2 listening stations in Britain, one being the infamous 'golf balls' at Menwith Hill. More info
If international terrorists were really going to strike in the UK, that is one target I would not mind being destroyed one bit.
Its like a scaled down version of the epcott golfball
And as for Menwith Hill- I do often wonder why it is I worry about living 15 miles from that place:)

Given the history of successive US governments, in particular the present one, regarding trade wars with Europe and repeated bugging incidents for both industrial and political reasons, I have every reason to believe the French.
