[…] It is on the plus side that they were rubbished in the Sunday Times (26 November 1995) by MOD flacks James Adams and Liam Clarke; and Fred Holroyd, who was in working in Army Intelligence in the same patch in the same period, has not dismissed them. He says that a lot of Republicans […]
[…] the ‘feel’ of such a document right.) For reasons that have been elaborated in Lobster 11 (and, more recently, in the interview I did with Wallace and Holroyd in Tribune 23 January 1987), the project never got beyond its initial stages. But I have a copy of Wallace’s first notes for CO2 and they […]
[…] INLA, presumably one of the hardest of targets to penetrate, and MI5 had its agent, Pat Daly, being offered a place on the organisation’s inner sanctum. (Fred Holroyd says that in his day the British had an agent on the IRA’s Army Council; and assumes they have one now.) Is Winter’s dictum to be […]
[…] the mainland UK media have spent the past 3 months talking to Wallace (and us) but printing almost nothing, in Ireland, North and South, Wallace and Fred Holroyd have been making headlines every week.

Fred Holroyd, Tam Dalyell MP, Duncan Campbell, Paul Foot, Mark Hollingsworth and Gerry Gable. The reader is invited to accept that Murray has undergone a political conversion and […]
