Surely they can't stop it being published though? I would have thought there will be plenty of independant or foriegn Journo's happy to report on it all whilst in Afghan / Iraq etc. They then simply sell it to any news broadcaster they wish.

I thought that to get a total ban, they need court approval?!? Is that right? I would hope that none of Her Majesty's courts would approve something like that.

Me being naive?!?! Maybe, but it won't make any difference, most votors will already know what is going on.

Or....is this Daily Telegraph Guff?!?!? lol
