The Candid Autobiography of a Senior Intelligence Officer
Ratings6
Average rating3
Written by Peter Wright, former MI5 officer and Assistant Director, and co-author Paul Greengrass. It was published first in Australia. Its allegations proved scandalous on publication, but more so because the British Government attempted to ban it, ensuring its profit and notoriety.

The present Prime Minster of Australia Malcolm Turnbull “.......calls the Britishers' conduct in the affair “quite disgraceful” and adds that the experience “galvanized my determination to see Australia rid herself of its remaining constitutional links with England.”
I wonder what Turnbull would make of this today.
