". . . How The MoD Decides If UFOs Are Potential Battlecruisers . . ."

MOD
UFO menace ‘not a threat’

     The Defence Ministry has denied that Britain is in peril from alien warships descending from the skies, while acknowledging that has received 714 reports of unidentified flying objects in the last six years.

Junior defence minister Derek Twigg said yesterday that of the 714 reports since 2001, only 12 had been 'deemed to be worthy of further consideration' – although he did not go into details of how the MoD decides if UFOs are potential battlecruisers from the Orion Nebula, or just funny-looking pigeons.

After further analysis, none of the 12 potential Betelgeusian Death Fleets were determined to 'demonstrate any threat to the integrity of the UK Air Defence Region'.

Mr Twigg's comments were in reply to Lynne Featherstone, the Liberal Democrat MP for Hornsey and Wood Green. The Wood Green area of London has long been believed to be a prime target for demolition by alien destructo-rays.

He added that: 'Reports (of UFOs) are analysed solely to consider whether there is any reason to believe that UK airspace has been compromised by the reported activity.'

Earlier this year, another junior defence minister, Don Touhig, denied that the MoD had ever run a 'UFO project' – in other words, that any co-ordinated attempt was made to determine if UFOs were alien spacecraft. Rather, he also claimed that they were merely checked by desk officers to rule out the possibility that they – whatever they are – were violating British airspace.

So Britain remains safe from the threat of trans-dimensional super-villains raining fire and death from the heavens – for now. But can this lucky state of affairs last forever?
