1/2 But apparently @david_broadley it's perfectly legal for Britain to sell weapons to Saudi Arabia, an aggressive nation which murders dissidents and cuts up their bodies. I don't suppose anyone these days much *wants* to issue a letter of marque. — PolitiTweet.org

People forget that Drake was a privateer. A privateer is only a pirate with a letter of marque. It is now illegal… https://t.co/2wRSa5SdNp
