| Exposed | 1994 London Israeli Embassy attack |
An MI5 agent turned 'whistleblower' who didn't reveal very much but has since associated himself with some of the most dubious end of those questioning the official narrative. Some believe he is still working for MI5. | |
David Shayler left MI5 as a 'whistleblower' together with fellow 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] He emerged from high-security Belmarsh Prison broken and delusional.[2]
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. He later claimed to be the messiah and wore women's clothes in public. Secker suggests he is still working for MI5, to discredit the truth movements.

1994 London Israeli Embassy attack
David Shayler and Annie Machon stated that several people in MI5 regarded the 1994 London Israeli Embassy attack as a false flag, done to reduce sympathy for the Palestinian cause.[citation needed]
MI6 plot to assassinate Muammar Gaddafi
David Shayler reported that that MI6 had funded the LIFG, a group which attempted an assassination of Muammar Gaddafi,as if in revenge for the Lockerbie bombing, which he says was orchestrated by Libya (he claims that justice was served - that Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi was responsible).[3]
British intelligence agency’s surveillance of socialists
Former partner of fellow MI5 officer Annie Machon, Shayler was prosecuted under the Official Secrets Act 1989 after passing documents to the Mail on Sunday newspaper in August 1997 that alleged that MI5 was paranoid about socialists and that it had previously investigated Labour Party ministers Peter Mandelson, Jack Straw and Harriet Harman. David Shayler broke up with his partner Annie Machon after she was disturbed by his psychedelic drug use.
Later activities
He has been interviewed for films on a range of topics including 9-11 (in which he made the bizarre suggestion that no planes were involved). He spoke on the BBC as a critic of the government's official narrative about 7-7 (stating that he believes the event was a false flag). Shayler has continued to appear at squats, protests and demonstrations.[4]
