Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. Book Club Edition. 25 cm, xvi, 271, [1] pages. Illustrations. References. Index. David Leigh (born 1946) is a British journalist and writer who was the investigations editor of The Guardian and is the author of "Investigative Journalism: a survival guide". He… retired in April 2013, although Leigh continued his association with the newspaper. From 1980 to 1989, he was chief investigative reporter at The Observer. His book The Wilson Plot increased public interest in alleged attempts by the British security services and others to destabilize Harold Wilson's government in the 1970s. His 1995 TV documentary for World in Action, "Jonathan of Arabia", led after a libel trial to the jailing for perjury of former Conservative defence minister Jonathan Aitken. In 1979, Leigh won a British Press Awards special award for exposing jury-vetting, whilst at the Guardian. In 1985, he won Investigative Reporter of the Year in the What the Paper Say awards, for exposing MI5 vetting of BBC staff. In 2007, he won the Paul Foot Award, with his colleague Rob Evans, for the BAE bribery exposures. Leigh and Evans were presented with the What the Papers Say Judges' Award for 'outstanding investigative journalism'. In 2010, the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists gave him and five other journalists the Daniel Pearl Award for their investigation of toxic dumping by oil traders Trafigura. In 2015, he and a Guardian team he led won Investigation of the Year at the British Journalism Awards for their exposure of tax-dodging at HSBC. In February 2013, the Press Gazette listed him as third in their list of the top ten investigative journalists. "In exploring the incredible complexities of postwar espionage, the author turns a bright light on the murky corners of a secret world that is illuminated here for the first time. " It could be the lurid plot of a bestselling thriller. yet in The Wilson Plot leasing investigative journalist David Leigh reveals the full true story behind the extraordinary conspiracy first hinted at by Peter Wright. Drawing on Wright's own private confessions and unpublished correspondence, on the recollections of MI5 and MI6 officers, and on the testimony of former FBI and CIA members, Leigh explores how Wright himself and CIA chief James Angleton led a bizarre campaign against Labour Prime Minster Harold Wilson, his government, advisers and friends. In a historic decision, the House of Lords reversed the Thatcher government's ban on "quoting from Spycatcher" opening the way for the publication in England and the United States of The Wilson Plot -the highly controversial and explosive account of what the spycatchers were really up to. Using hitherto unknown material from Peter Wright, author of Spycatcher, and interviews with dozens of his sources, the London Observer's David Leigh has put together an unbelievable story of paranoia and treachery in the British and American intelligence agencies, revealing a wealth of "dirty tricks" played against democratic governments - a treason never discussed in the other spycatcher books. Leigh traces the spycatchers' obsession that Labour prime minister Harold Wilson was, incredibly, a Soviet spy - and shows how they tried to persuade British officers to join in an attempt to overthrow the popularly elected government. Leigh discusses the role of CIA chief James Angleton and uncovers the true motives of Wilson's accusers: playing on anti-communist hysteria, the CIA and MI5 set out to defame those individuals whose politics interfered with the intelligence agenda. Amazingly, such plots succeeded in Australia, and perhaps even toppled Willy Brandt's government in Germany as well. In exploring the incredible complexities of postwar espionage, Leigh turns a bright light on the murky corners of a secret world that is illuminated here for the first time.
