[…] that had happened the New Left would have emerged as the non-Labour Party power base for left socialism. It would been not only less open to rightest propaganda but the fact that its organization was amorphous would have made MI5 penetration within it far less significant than it was within the CP. (Incidentally, of […]
[…] of the Hilton, and at a travel agents’ convention which appears more like an international gathering of secret agents all getting pissed together. CIA stations carry our propaganda and study the Russian Intelligence Service (RIS) and local left activity. But Beck learns that by the 1960s RIS had long since ceased using foreign Communist […]
[…] was an historic choice because Halifax would certainly have made peace. Nevertheless Labour’s crucial role has been forgotten. Once installed in power, Churchill ensured that all the propaganda resources of the state were devoted to making him synonymous with the British war effort, an exercise that was often bitterly contested at the time, but […]
[…] the euro is, it has decided to enter the euro and is ‘playing a long game…. preparing for euro membership’.

[…] many Cuban exiles. Throughout the period following Castro’s seizure of power, there has been a bloody war being fought clandestinely and more openly in the form of propaganda pumped from the USA seeking to undermine the government of Cuba.
