... discredit a critic of New Labour- is described in the New Statesman of 2 October. This story got promoted up to page 10. News values! Aah, innocence The Sunday Telegraph reported (28 April 1998) that the home of one of the senior Sinn Fein people involved in the Northern Ireland peace talks, Gerry Kelly, was bugged for the three years leading up to the talks. Transcripts from the bug 'passed to the Cabinet, played a key role in helping the government decide if the UIRA ceasefire was genuine'. It is said the Kelly was tipped off about the bug by someone in the Northern Ireland office. Security sources were said to be 'very angry ...

... (c) www.lobster-magazine.co.uk (Issue 4) April 1984 Last| Contents| Next Issue 4 "Operation Brogue" In the mainland UK press the bugging of a house used by Seamus Mallon, deputy leader of the Social Democratic and Labour Party, was presented as (merely) another mysterious and rather inept example of 'dirty tricks' in Irish politics. (See eg Guardian 20th February 1984) A brief story appeared and then vanished again. But Irish press reports suggest that the bugging was merely one part of a complicated story which leads to a failed 1982 MI6 coup against then Prime Minister Charles Haughey. The story (Sunday News 25th March 1984) is long, complicated ...

... Office officials' who authorised the inquiry into Stalker.(15) Meanwhile the Stalker inquiry in Northern Ireland took a new turn when the Manchester policeman and his team discovered that the hay shed, where Tighe had been killed, had been under electronic surveillance. In October 1984 it was originally denied to Stalker that the hay shed had been bugged, but army officers confirmed that a bug had been planted by MI5 and its product recorded by a police and Army technical team. 'The tape was to become the rope in a bitter tug-of-war between those who believe that methods of intelligence-gathering should be protected at all costs and those who regard the tape as possible evidence of murder committed by ...

... Oliver's office- and that would have been Ms. Wells. Did she keep an appointments' book? I don't know. Maybe, maybe not. Did John Dean think she did? I suspect so. One other thing: a second difference between my 'alternative theory' and Len Colodny's is this: I insist that inasmuch as no bugging devices were found inside the DNC, despite repeated, targeted searches by the FBI of every telephone in the office, no bugs had ever been there to be found. I argue that the bug monitored by James McCord's employee, Alfred Baldwin, was actually in the telephone at the Columbia Plaza- and not in the DNC office of ...

... In particular it is premature in its assessment of another key killing in the Stalker enquiry, that of Michael Tighe, the 17 year-old with no record of paramilitary involvement, killed in the "hayshed shoot-out" in November 1982. Doherty is critical of early reports of the existence of a tape-recording of the incident made by E4A using an MI5 bug, and dismisses it as a red herring. This seems unlikely considering the amount of information about the tape, and Stalker's struggle to obtain it which has since been reported, notably by Peter Murtagh in the Guardian (17 June, 16 July and 7 October 1986). However, the official explanation of the incident as a blunder ...

... public becomes increasingly cynical as 'news' devolves into 'entertainment'. And along comes Mr. Felt. Who is applauded, but not much examined. Who is he, other than a G-man? Well, he's the fellow who was outraged by the Watergate break-in, which (we're told) was about Nixon's evil spooks breaking into, and bugging, the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate. (Never mind that the only bugging device found inside the DNC was characterized as a broken 'toy' by Felt's own FBI – that's a very different story.) Doesn't it seem a little odd that Felt should have been so outraged by James McCord's break-in at the Watergate, when he ...
