MI6’s Secret ‘Multi-Million Pound’ Cold War Slush Fund






MI6’s Secret ‘Multi-Million Pound’ Cold War Slush Fund


November 21st, 2017

Via: BBC:

What was it for? C’s answer in 1952 is revealing. “He thought it right to have a large sum to meet such contingencies as (a) a very large inducement to some person in an absolutely key position, or (b) the Vote for the Service being drastically cut in some political emergency in a way which would make it impossible to carry on the Service in the way it was necessary.”

Option (a) means an incredibly large bribe for some foreign official, and Option (b) seems to refer to the possibility that politicians might cut MI6’s budget, as they did at the end of World War One.
