[…] started with the writing of a book by Rupert Allason, pen name Nigel West, son of a leading MI6 officer. The original fight was about whether the KGB had deeply penetrated every aspect of British Intelligence. Now a lot of dirty linen is being washed in public and the background to the purges in […]
[…] robbed’. It was this unarticulated feeling of disappointment that in part later enabled some people even to entertain the notion that Gaitskell had been bumped-off by the KGB to make way for Wilson.

[…] to serve the interests of Israel goes back well before that time.
