I’ve long felt that the whole UK is riddled with so many state “agents” of varying degrees that it would make soviet East Germany look like a model of democratic propriety. All the political parties are full of undercover agents, all major media, civil service, education. Wonder where the old bobby on the beat is? He’s spying on you and me to keep an eye on us to make sure we’re not a threat to the established order.
