[gersforme]

Intelligence whistleblower Edward Snowden has been installed as rector at Glasgow University.

"The former US National Security Agency contractor fled from his homeland last May after revealing extensive details of internet and phone surveillance.

The 30-year-old is currently staying in Russia, where he has temporary asylum.

Speaking via a satellite link from Russia, Mr Snowden said he was honoured to take up the post but could not attend as he was not allowed in the UK."

He is regarded as a traitor in his own country, and Glasgow is regarded as a city of traitors in our country, so I suppose its a good fit.

Hes a hero in my book too. I was just pointing out that in this country, the city that gave him the honour is full of phucking traitors, going by the football driven idiot culture.
