MI5's Fishy Official Curry (as I like to call it) was originally intended to be a survey of MI5's wartime work, but it turned into an extended account of (and apologia for) MI5's activities since its inception. The three typescript volumes of the Report were released into the PRO, ...

... knowledge he was not recalled by the War Office in 1940; nor was he interned, despite fears that he was the most obvious candidate to 'do a Pétain'. After the war, anxious to prevent Soviet domination of Europe, Fuller began to interest himself in the techniques of psychological and guerrilla warfare which led him into the arms of MI6 and the Anti Bolshevik Bloc of Nations (ABN) in their covert war against the USSR during the 1950s. As Coogan notes, the methods and alliances used to divine a European Imperium may have been radically different but the 'split' remained 'essentially a tactical question'. For Coogan 'The Order's' penchant for Schaukelpolitik (see-saw ...

... /1 Last | Contents | Next Issue 40 Disinformation: From Euros to UFOs A secret service?In the Guardian of 12 June 2000 David Leigh had an important piece on the relationship between our secret servants and the media. At the core of this was his account of the revelation, via a libel suit in London, of an MI6 operation to plant disinformation in the Sunday Telegraph about the son of Colonel Gaddafi. (1 ) The story was written by Con Coughlin and attributed to a 'British banking official'. As the trial revealed, said official came from MI6, who had been supplying Coughlin with material for years. Leigh describes how, when Coughlin asked his ...

... but it goes too far to blame him for over four hundred arrests. There is no reliable evidence for Marshall's tale; that was why the programme played it down rather than emphasising it. From John Hope In Lobster 39 David Turner claims to have 'solved one of the great mysteries about Maxwell Knight', asserting that Knight was 'working for MI6 from 1924-25 to 1931' via a private intelligence agency used by MI6 to furnish information on communists in Britain. Alas, the matter is more complex and ambiguous than Turner claims and does not entirely support his conclusion in regard to Knight. The private intelligence agency that Knight worked for from 1923 was the Industrial Intelligence Bureau ( ...

... Robertson told Medhurst that he would contact the Regional Office in Edinburgh to discover more concerning the case and in particular the pilot's identity: as things stood, MI5 had 'received no information about this man'. After the meeting Robertson returned to MI5 headquarters and told 'Mr White' (presumably Dick White, later head of MI5 and then of MI6) before telephoning Edinburgh for information. The Assistant to the Regional Officer spoke to Robertson and said that he would 'make enquiries about the case and let me know'. It was only after this, as a result of a German communique reported on the 9.00 evening news bulletin that Robertson appears to have heard for the first ...

I'm not saying that he isn't a spy, but I think it's now very difficult for me to explain to Portuguese readers that he came to Oporto in a KGB training mission as it was said in court in November 1993....... And I recall that the ex-MI6 officer, Richard Tomlinson saw an MI5 report on the case which concluded that Mr. Smith had not given any important or damaging information to Victor Oschenko. Tomlinson said: 'I was therefore very surprised when I learnt of MI5's claims at Mr. Smith's trial of the extent of the damage allegedly caused by him, and the extraordinary sentence ...
