The highly secretive British intelligence service MI5 has been accused of rampant spying on its own citizens as well as countless acts of extreme illegality in front of a high court in England. As the Telegraph reports:
Liberty said it involved the “mass collection of data of innocent citizens.” Megan Goulding, a lawyer for the civil rights group, said: “MI5 have been holding on to people’s data – ordinary people’s data, your data, my data – illegally for many years.
“Not only that, they’ve been trying to keep their really serious errors secret – secret from the security services watchdog, who’s supposed to know about them, secret from the Home Office, secret from the prime minister and secret from the public.”
Among the large amounts of data which can be collected by MI5 under the Investigatory Powers Act are individuals’ location data, calls, messages and web browsing history.As well as “bulk data” collection, which can include information about ordinary members of the public, MI5 can use targeted interceptions of communications and computer hacking for investigations such as counter-terrorism.
MI5 has long had shadowy ties for years, very likely with the CIA, FBI and other parts of the Democrat-controlled Deep State in America. British spy chiefs were even informed of the infamous “Steel Dossier” well before the American President was, and who knows what part they may or may not have played in its creation.
It seems rather unlikely that all of these “breaches” and “oversights” were accidental on the agency’s part, as they occurred on a massive scale and went on for years at a time. More likely is the reality that these alleged crimes were orchestrated for a greater, as of yet, unknown reason by the powers that be.
Lawyers for MI5 have stated that they cannot disclose the exact nature of the breaches due to supposed “national security concerns.” But “national security” is a broad category and could include almost anything.
What is MI5 really afraid of disclosing? Are they trying to protect something or someone? We honestly don’t know yet. But where there is smoke there is usually fire.
In the meantime, we’ll be keeping our eyes on this story.
I recently replied to an E Mailadvertising background checks. to my shock and dismay, they told me i am on an FBI watch list and also on a DOJ watch list. Hopefully, these people are just scammers lying to me. I cannot believe someone as pristine as I am in my personal life, as law abiding as I am, and as truly patriotic as I am could be truly on any “watch lists”! !
When we find that our Secret Intelligence Agencies FBI, CIA, NSA, DIA, etc., etc., etc., have been Compromized, and our DEMOCRAT PARTY has NOW PUBLICALLY indicated they wish to pass over the SOCIALIST Rhetoric and go straight to FULL BLOWN COMMUNISM,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I think it’s time we start calling a Spade a Spade and clean HOUSE here in the USA and start with CONGRESS, and work our way straight for our BORDERS with every ILLEGAL ALIEN, TERRORIST, MALCONTENT, COMMUNIST, DEMOCRAT, LIBERAL, PROGRESSIVE, COLLEGE PROFESSORS, BLACK PANTHERS, KKK’s , WHITE SUPREMICISTS, NAZIs MUSLIM FUNDAMENTALISTs and evryone who HATES AMERICA and march them single file to the PACIFIC OCEAN and Teach them the BACK STROKE as a FINAL BENEFIT that ASMERICANS will provide them !!!!!
In Britain, the People there have zero freedom and are mostly in favor of Islam because they are mostly stupid and ignorant and wankers.
You think the Brit’s are the only ones doing that? The entre reason that Obama pushed hard and quick for what they called and upgrade to “digital television” was the biggest hoax next to Spy Gate. Going digital is what allowed the NSA, CIA, FBI and every other intelligence agency to collect everything that is transmitted on a network, wire, cable or fiber optic. Every thing Americans do that include network transmission is intercepted and stored, EVERYTHING. The Patriot Act was never about listening in on foreign calls and transmissions only. The biggest lie ever. It was the installation of nation wide “Big Brother”. Obama was the instigator but the rest of Congress was also all in for this total surveillance of the American public.
Scary stuff. I guess we will have to go back to ham radios and smoke signals if we want our freedom away from Big Brother.
Hardly a surprise as British people are really not citizens as they are subjects! Their rights are given by the queen!
