The BBC reports:
MI5 knew agent was misogynist 'obsessed' with violence, watchdog finds
An MI5 statement said:
The use of agents is fundamental to MI5's ability to keep the UK safe.
Except when they are machete-wielding misogynists that is.
This is actually an important piece of investigative journalism given that it is the BBC (a part of the UK establishment) investigating MI5 (another part of the UK establishment) and uncovering plenty of 'dirty washing'.
So maybe there's hope for us all yet?
