... alleges is a front for the CIA. ' 3 There appear to be at least sixteen fraternities/sororities at the University of Virginia, and some of them do have odd histories.4 It should be noted that the allegation against the Z Society and the University has been denied; those NK nuts are simply being unjustifiably paranoid about Western spying, you'd suppose? Firstly, though, I should bring the story of Otto Warmbier up to date. On 13 June this year – less than 18 months into that long sentence – Warmbier was repatriated to the United States in a coma.

The Guardian of February 21, 1985, printed a full account of the story; In it Cathy Massiter, a former MI5 officer, blew the whistle on MI5 activities and named Harry Newton as a spy within the labour movement. (Tribune of March 1 printed a transcript of some of the programme.) Massiter said she was put in charge of the surveillance of CND: 'It was perceived as more than ever necessary that we had to be able to answer very precisely whatever questions we were asked about CND and its subversive penetration which ...

... first year of the Watergate affair. I suspect that he met Woodward in an underground garage on at least one occasion - and that this formed the basis of the literary character whom Woodward chose to call "Deep Throat". In the light of the still unresolved "Moorer-Radford Affair", which saw Naval Officers at the Pentagon spying on Henry Kissinger and the White House, it would be interesting to know if Admiral Inman was Deep Throat - and, if he was, did he assume that role with or without the blessing of the then Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Thomas Moorer.

' Well, that's about as wrong as you can get. Laurie's book, as noted above, was published in 1970. The zeal started seven years earlier with the Spies for Peace handing out a pamphlet, Danger:Official Secret, in April 1963 on the Aldermaston March. This lifted the lid on the Regional Seats of Government and other clandestine installations and set me and several of my friends spending much of our spare time searching out bunkers and other underground structures.

(159) But their primary job is to ensure that the left fails. MI5 is this state's defence against the British left. The spy-catching stuff, the counter-intelligence activities, are relatively unimportant, virtually a cover for MI5's domestic activities. (160) It is easy to let the real weight of MI5's role slip by. MI5 is the very heart of it, the palace guard - literally and metaphorically. Harold Wilson's charges against the agency in 1976 ...
