Who is important enough to require five military aircraft escort ?   
Flying over Oxford south-east at about 2:45 pm, a narrow-bodied twin 
engined airliner escorted by five Eurofighters, one ahead, one port and 
starboard with two following behind.

Obviously someone of importance but I've never seen that sort of escort 
before.  Anyone know anything more ?

attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and
endangering the country.  It works the same in every country."
