The Black Spy Podcast,
Season 2, episode 0001
'Brexit, empire, the Traitor King & paedophilia in high office'
This hard hitting discussion with author, publisher, historian and the best selling literary agent in the world, Andrew Lownie, delves deep into Britain's past present and future, as uncomfortable histories are brought out into the cold light of day.
From skeletons in the Royal cupboard - treachery with Hitler and paedophilia at the highest military rank – to the Empire, Brexit and free trade verses protectionism the discussion freely meanders around the question of what are actual state and national security secrets as opposed to attempts to prevent 'individual' embarrassment. The episode also discusses changes in the British civil service, the increased prominence of SPADs (Special Advisors) and the competence of ministers within the British governmental system. Moreover, the programme assesses the importance of Scotland Yard's Special Branch as a one time long standing security service within the 'British police'. Furthermore, the discussion touches on the danger to all British intelligence and security services, of outing MPSB officers. As, if the UK can out its own clandestine officers, then how future agents have confidence that British intelligence will protect them. Such actions are a clear death knell, for any country's intelligence and security agencies.
In this extended episode listeners truly learn how difficult it normally is to gain an insight into the secret world as Andrew explains what he did to gain the knowledge he required to write his in-depth biographies.
If you're seriously interested in the clandestine world, this episode is a must hear and its revelations will inform and educate many, if not most listeners about matters long hidden from view.
Andrew now awaits the result of a very personally expensive legal adjudication concerning he right to obtain access to Lord Mountbatten's public dairies. Papers which could shine an even brighter light on some of his questionable activities!
Carlton intends to have Andrew back on The Black Spy Podcast when this occurs.
