Everyone's favourite neo-fascist tabloid rag, The Daily Mail, was left red-faced today after it emerged that a laptop containing the financial information of thousands of members of staff was stolen.
This ineptitude comes only months after the newspaper lead with a serious of inflammatory front-page headlines attacking the government for 'mind-blowing incompetence' following a similar data-loss incident.
The Mail's publishers Associated Newspapers issued a statement saying that the loss was due to a 'technical issue'.

How do you "technically" lose something? I imagine what he meant to say was that they left a security door open, and since the door is locked and unlocked digitally this makes the laptops loss a "technical issue".
Good one Daily Mail, I love it.-
