// I wonder how many of these positions will be open to Muslims? //
According to the Daily Mail, it sounds like all of them will be muslim :-/
// MI5 is launching an ambitious campaign to recruit intelligence officers to convince the thousands of Jihadi extremists it is monitoring to spy for them.

All of them, surely? Wouldn't want our security services to be accused of racism/discrimination/Islamophobia, would we. That would be acting contrary to the values we're trying to protect.
Just so you don't misunderstand me, AOG, I'm getting this fatuous argument in before any of the (very long list of AB's) Friends of Jeopardy pops up to make it.

At a time of austerity cuts and police numbers being savagely culled, the Security Services have enjoyed increased funding.
The decision to expand our spy network has not just been taken now, it was taken months, if not years ago.
You normally wouldn't hear of extra expenditure. But now is a good time to announce it, after a terrorist attack. Last Monday, Osborne announced an extra 1,000 spies as a response to the Russian plane disaster. After the latest atrocity, that has bumped up to 1,900. Presumably if there is another incident, another announcement will increase the number again.
It makes it look like the Government are responding to an increased threat, when it reality they are just making public something they did secretly months ago.
