... declining, bureaucratic relic, hardly a 'threat' to anybody.(149) For others merely asking the question gives credibility to disinformation from the right. But the fact remains that significant sections of the British Right, in the propaganda organisations of capital, the state and the Conservative Party, believed that the CPGB was part of a global conspiracy, directed and financed by Moscow, which was working in the union movement and wider society to undermine capitalist democracy in Britain. And it is no longer self-evident that this was complete nonsense. Orders from Moscow?We now know that the CPGB actually was being directed, to some extent, from Moscow after the war. ...

... left; Arthur Deakin of the Transport Workers, Will Lawther of the Mineworkers and Tom Williamson of the General and Municipal. Minkin describes in detail how this trio ran the what he calls 'an unprecedented period of "platform" dominance at Party conference';(16) but noted that this alliance was defensive in nature and saw a communist conspiracy behind all criticism. The political beliefs of the leaders of trade unions in this period was mixed. Some were supporters of Moral Rearmament (MRA). At the 1947 MRA World Assembly at Caux-sur-Martreux in France, delegates from Britain included E.G . Gooch MP, President of the Agricultural Workers. An MRA ...

... similar to the 'spycatcher' Peter Wright: bald; large, hooked nose; and even allowing for the gap between the 1952 picture and those we saw in the late eighties, the eyes, eyebrows and the ears seem similar. Though Wright became a fairly run-of-the-mill, right-wing, communist-obsessed conspiracy theorist, when younger he taught in the Workers Educational Association and voted Labour in 1945. (Spycatcher pp.30 and 31) He came from the middle class, and he suffered - he thought - at the hands of incompetent prats from the upper class (who - he believed - finally screwed him out of part of his ...

... this is good news; the massive documentation comes in a fine, simple prose. There is quite a chunk in here about IRD's role in these insurgencies, and this is a significant contribution to our slowly increasing knowledge of IRD's activities. One of the author's major themes is IRD's constant attempt to fit events on the ground into its Communist Conspiracy theory, regardless of the actual situation - just as they did in Northern Ireland in the 1970s. (The Information Policy Unit there looks increasingly like IRD's last stand.) The rest of the state's information and diplomatic services involved in the insurgencies frequently objected to this line, sometimes successfully. Quite why the rest of Whitehall put up ...

... way to Norway and settled down. Davies, now a 'Security Consultant', was tipped off by 'a friend', according to a Sunday Times report,(1 ) tracked her down (after the publication of this book) and, unannounced, turned up at her front door. Last November she was extradited to Germany to face conspiracy to murder charges arising from the hijack, but not before Davies had reportedly sewn up a deal for a book and film in collaboration with her. According to the Independent (19 March 1996) there are two Germans also in German prisons awaiting trial in connection with the October 1977 events. This episode is still alive and kicking. ...

... . He takes as true some reports, for example of the funding of the Tory Party and Mark Thatcher's wealth, I would not. (These particular stories appeared in Business Age, and striking though they were, did not include any reliable evidence.) He is also occasionally inclined to assume that chronology is causation. The vast state conspiracy he describes against the smaller firms involved in the arming of Iraq, complete with murders, blackmail, and corruption in almost every government department, is probably true. But the evidence is sometimes suggestive rather than conclusive. On the other hand, this text got past Little Brown's libel lawyers and James must have been able to convince them ...

... HQ, Lisburn. Disinformation was planted in the media; foreign journalists were taken into back rooms and shown 'secret' documents - diaries, leaflets, journals, minutes of meetings; some genuine, many forged.(69) For the most part IRD tried, yet again, to establish the insurgents as a part of the Soviet global conspiracy, but after the re-election of the Wilson government in 1974 they also began to try to show support for the IRA from a Labour Party influenced by the CPGB.
