[…] FCO can produce specialists in the area. Secondly the ‘stans’, by which I mean principally Pakistan, used to come under MI5 (sometimes army officers seconded from the MOD) and the colonial office, which is again why SIS neglected things. Afghanistan was of interest because of India/Iran/Soviet Union and all those SIS specialists certainly had […]
[…] The Sunday Times was a serious, respectable newspaper until Andrew Neil became its editor in the mid-1980s and turned it into a mouthpiece for MI5 and the MOD to run their rubbish through. The Sunday Telegraph shows all the signs of going down the same dangerous path. But then I’m an old-fashioned kind of […]
[…] for the SAS unit at Castledillon in the mid 70’s before the SAS were officially sent to Ireland. In fact, contacts of Wallace and Holroyd’s in the MOD have confirmed that 14th Intelligence was created in the early 1980s.

[…] and the Worms Bank through their common membership in Frank Buchman’s Moral Rearmament movement. . .'(14) (How would he know what is in MI6 files in the MOD?)

[…] Lords on Gulf War Veterans issues. On behalf of Tim Sebastian, she privately took up the matter of Operation Black Cat with a senior minister at the MOD. She was also kind enough to do the same with our Black Dog story with Dr. John Reid, whose only response was an off-the-cuff remark about […]
[…] visit and correspond with Michael who continues to vigorously fight his conviction. We believe he is a victim of a miscarriage of justice perpetrated by the British MOD, Crown Prosecution Service and Police. The British Security Services continue their underhanded methods as revealed by the current case of ex-MI5 spy, David Shayler, who tried […]
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. […]
SIS is dead – you read it first in Lobster – but the funeral has not been announced. Established in 1909, it will not make its centenary. SIS once offered a global brand operating in a market that had been previously divided along the lines of accepted cartels (market fixing). Its market-share, however, has been […]
Wensley Clarkson Blake Publishing, London 1998, £16.99 Remember Jonathan Moyle, the ex-RAF officer, editor of Defence Helicopter World, who was found dead, hanging in a wardrobe in his hotel room in Chile in 1990?
