He worked with World in Action and is now with BBC's Panorama. It was to John Ware that Panorama entrusted its investigation into the Wilson-MI5 plots after the BBC embargo on the subject was lifted a couple of months ago. Like all the other journalists interested in this story, Ware went to see Colin Wallace, eventually spending ...

... (c ) www.lobster-magazine.co.uk (Issue 14) November 1987 Last | Contents | Next Issue 14 Colin Wallace - an assessment I began writing this at the beginning of August. It was then some 8 months or so after Colin Wallace's release from prison. Some kind of summing up seemed appropriate. A great many journalists have now looked at his allegations - a handful in some detail - and, so far, they have all stood up. Not a line of his allegations has been falsified. The documents he claimed were written in 1974 (some of them were discussed in Lobster 13 ) have been forensically examined by Dr. Julius ...

... of the Ulster Citizens' Army (UCA for the rest of this essay) is a tiny fragment in the intricate history of Protestant politics in Northern Ireland in the mid 1970s - so tiny that none of the general accounts I have looked at even mention it. But the UCA lingers on: it is currently being used to smear Colin Wallace. What was the UCA? On this there is no agreement. Some journalists who were in Northern Ireland at the time remain convinced that it was nothing more than a British Army/intelligence operation, a 'funny'. Some suspect it to have been a psy ops job, possibly even run by Wallace himself. Although this view ...

... killing which would bring to an end the truce that the Labour Government had negotiated with the IRA. No democratic society can allow that sort of allegation to go uninvestigated. It is made by people who served on our behalf as intelligence officers in the area. We saw in last Sunday's edition of The Observer that another intelligence officer, Colin Wallace, who was closely linked with Fred Holroyd in a campaign to expose what is going on, has been dismissed as irrelevant by the British Government. We see now that The Observer, using forensic tests, has been able to demonstrate that the notes that he wrote were not written in the past couple of years by somebody who is ...

Wallace's job spec. for CO2 was to produce a document, a first-hand narrative, apparently written by a supporter of the Republican forces in Northern Ireland. In this narrative a number of Westminster MPs were to be smeared with various illegal ...

... responded to our appeal for money. Your response, and a bit of 'consulting' with Fleet St. on the content of Lobster 11, has halved our debts. We shall survive. It is tempting to say something about the developing crisis re the Wilson-MI5 story (Lobstergate?). I write this 24 hours after Colin Wallace made his first speaking appearance on British television, and very impressive it was too, despite the interview apparently being edited by a blind man. By the time this gets through the production cycle there should have been others. For while the mainland UK media have spent the past 3 months talking to Wallace (and us) but printing ...

... no serious investigation by British journalists, the Labour Party or the Labour Government. In Wilson, MI5 and the rise of Thatcher: Covert Operations in British Politics 1974-76 using as their starting point information from former members of the security services and the British Army, and, in particular, certain accounts of the period written by Colin Wallace, the authors demonstrate that the outlines of a series of ramified psychological and disinformation operations against the Wilson Government of 1974-76 are visible. Among the elements analysed are: the smear campaign against Labour Party figures during 1974 and 1975; the so-called 'private armies' episode of 1974 with the first information on the sources of ...

... for Grew's murder, the Castleblaney man slipped over the border to Keady, walked into the RUC station, and disappeared. Three days later he contacted his family, admitting that he had been working for British intelligence, and said that he would not be returning home. Whilst Doherty's book had produced a goldmine of information from Holroyd, Colin Wallace and others an the Grew-Carroll case and other covert operations in Ireland, it suffers from the mishap of going to print just too soon: the last few months of 1986 provided much valuable information about the Stalker inquiry that does not appear in the book. In particular it is premature in its assessment of another key killing in ...
