Matthew Gould is the first Jew to have been appointed British Ambassador to Israel (2010 to 2015)[1] and the first CEO of NHSX, which was founded in 2019 and has developed a contact tracking app to monitor the spread of COVID-19.[2]
Fox-Werritty scandal
Craig Murray, former Ambassador to Uzbekistan, argued that British policy was being driven in an underhanded fashion by the Israel lobby and linked Matthew Gould with the 2011 Fox-Werritty scandal. Murray wrote to Gould asking when he first met Adam Werritty, how many times he had met him, and how many communications of every kind had passed between them. He was told these questions would be answered in Cabinet Secretary Gus O'Donnell’s investigation, but objected that "Gus O’Donnell’s report answered none of these questions".
According to Murray:
- "I turned to an independent-minded MP, Jeremy Corbyn, who put down a parliamentary question to William Hague. The reply quite deliberately ignored almost all of Corbyn’s question, but it did throw up an extraordinary bit of information – yet another meeting between Fox, Werritty and Gould, which had not been previously admitted."
Hague replied to Corbyn:
- “Our ambassador to Israel was also invited by the former Defence Secretary to a private social engagement in summer 2010 at which Adam Werritty was present.”
Murray concluded that “something very important is being hidden right at the heart of government” and published his story, “Matthew Gould and the plot to attack Iran.”[3]
In charge of cyber security
In November 2015, Matthew Gould was appointed Director of the Office of Cyber Security & Information Assurance.[4]

That this is overseen by NHSX CEO Matthew Gould who held all those secret meetings with Liam Fox and Adam Werritty, including with Mossad, frankly stinks." |
