In Britain, two people are back in court today over charges they illegally leaked a memo that reportedly details a conversation between President Bush and Prime Minister Tony Blair over the possible bombing of the television network Al Jazeera. David Keogh was charged with passing the memo to Leo O’Connor, who worked as an aide to former British MP Tony Clarke. The two are being charged under the Official Secrets Act, which outlaws disclosing classified government information.

Meanwhile the Guardian of London is reporting Clarke and another MP, Peter Kilfoyle, have admitted they defied the government and passed on key contents of the Al Jazeera memo. The two, both members of the governing Labour Party, said they obtained the memo in October 2004 and passed it on to an American contact.
