David Shayler left MI5 as a 'whistleblower' together with anothed MI5 officer, Annie Machon. They took some documents with them and were on the run in France. Later Shayler was arrested and charged under the Official Secrets Act 1989, sentenced to six months - and was released after only two.[1]
Shayler later aligned himself with the truth movements about the events of 9-11 and 7-7. As Tom Secker has noted. each time he espoused implausible viewpoints (No planes) and allied with researchers of questionable integrity. e later claimed to be the messiah and wore women's clothes in public.
