The Real British X-Files
blakeharris snips from a site called The X-Journals: "Nick Pope used to work for the British Ministry of Defense and for 3 years headed up their UFO project. His remit was to investigate UFO sightings reported to the British government, looking for evidence of any potential threat, or anything judged to be of any 'defence significance.'" Some very interesting anecdotes in here, as well as some background on how certain files about these sightings came to be preserved in the first place.
And then, in 2002, they transferred him over to the MOD Iraq Intelligence Gathering Service...
And where would you like us to put all of your fences when we are done removing them? ;)
Britain "definitely does not have a Ministry of Defense"??? How about a "Ministry of Defence", then? You're either spectacularly ignorant, or a nitpicking pedant. In either case, you're full of meadow muffins.

I've calculated my velocity with such exquisite precision that I have no idea where I am.
Whoooch
You just got troll'd!
We have the Ministry of Silly Walks
It's a grey area. Let's not labour the point.
You'd guess in a time where every mobile has camera people would come up with some good pictures, but that hasn't happened.
The answer is clear, then... the aliens must be using advanced computers with scanner technology to detect camera and recording devices, and only show up where those devices aren't present! That way they can remain undetected to continue conducting their nefarious experiments on us!
But the cows know when the aliens are coming, and get real apprehensive about it! If you keep a pet cow in your house, it'll wake you up at night before you can be abducted!
We have the Ministry of Silly Walks
Tends to get overlooked as it's next to the much bigger Ministry of Fiddling Expenses and Wasting Taxpayers' Money
Britain definitely does not have a Ministry of Defense and we also don't have a TV License either.
What do you have, then? Ministry of Peace?
Don't you mean Ministry of Pease?
And yet the major thrust of everything you've been saying is to jump to the enormous, and currently unsupportable, conclusion that some UFOs are actually alien spacecraft which have, somehow, travelled billions of light years from their home worlds all the way here to Earth and then spend 10mins or so flying around, maybe a day or so inserting probes in rednecks and then somehow disappear.
so? pilots and astronauts aren't really the most down-to-earth people...
