More like the Fleming version of Bond

MI5 has been doing a lot of PR in recent years. Adverts in liberal newspapers stressing the caring, sharing side of the secret police - a little hollow if you're from the six counties or any kind of dissident.

You'd be forgiven for thinking that they're all smartly-dressed young men Googling the bad guys. For a real insight, try reading this judge's report, in which he details MI5's complicity in torture and refusal to be honest with government and the courts.

Just like Fleming: his books are packed with sado-masochistic torture and contempt for democracy.

Be afraid. Be very afraid.


You may have seen some rather Orwellian police adverts around recently. This site has collected some subvertised versions you may enjoy. The one I've chosen was funny before. Now Ian Tomlinson's dead, it's rather more sombre.
