    Yes. And the new director general is a Tory stooge.

        MI5 but yeah. From the 1930s all the way to the late 80s/early 90s assuming they ever actually stopped.

        They also marked dangerous subversives like children's poet Michael Rosen's staff files with a Christmas tree stamp for monitoring and more.
