The government said medical data of 500,000 people was affected but no personally identifiable information had been made available.

Oh, he was 'disappointed' by Larry.....a fucking cat.
So if you cross Ian Murray, this is the level of reaction you can expect from him.
He'll call you a shit and 'a miserable creature' because the spoiled child didn't get exactly what he wanted.

Yeah, these guys absolutely hate you and I, you can tell.
