The UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) has uncovered a staggering
170,000 historic files that are overdue for review and release to the
British public, VICE News has learned.
On January 21, the FCO's Minister for Europe David Lidington notified
<http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201415/cmhansrd/cm150121/wmstext/150121m0001.htm>
parliament that a "substantial number of legacy paper files" — meaning
papers overdue <https://www.gov.uk/fco-special-collections> for transfer
to The National Archives (TNA) — had recently been located, as part of a
massive audit of UK government offices and overseas posts. But Lidington
provided scant detail of the intelligence contained in the documents.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
