Career
Harold Elletson was the Conservative Party MP for Blackpool North from 1992-1997. He joined the UK Liberal Democrats in 2002. He chaired of the New Security Foundation, where in 2010 he worked with IfS director Chris Donnelly and Jeff McCausland (also IfS), Piotr Gawliczek and Almeida Moura.[2]
MI6
On 22 December 1996 The Observer newspaper claimed Elletson moonlighted as an MI6 agent: the headline read "Pro-Serb Tory MP was MI6 Agent". The newspaper said he was recruited before he entered the House of Commons, working for the intelligence agency in Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union and during the conflict in the former Yugoslavia:
- "After visiting Yugoslavia in 1992, Mr Elletson notified his MI6 handlers that donations were reaching the Conservative Party from Serbia. MI6 received special sanction from the Prime Minister (John Major) for Mr Elletson to continue his secret role after his election in 1992. He carried out his unpaid intelligence work in Eastern Europe while representing the electors of Blackpool: he also ran an extensive network of private business interests in the region, while using his public position to mount a controversial defence of the Serb regime.".[3][4]
He joined the Liberal Democrats in 2002.[5]
