Cordings is without doubt, the best at what they do they produce a quality which surpasses any other company of its kind in Britain.

Give me yourself, O my God, give yourself back to me. Lo, I love you, but if my love is too mean, let me love more passionately.

At the same time, they get far more campaign donations than anybody else from defense contractors, from intelligence corporations, from private military companies.
Edward Snowden
