The story of the MI5 neo-Nazi spy | BBC Newscast

We look at a BBC investigation which has revealed that MI5 lied three times in court to protect one of its own violent, neo-Nazi agents.

As it was defending its handling of their agent who had attacked his girlfriend with a machete, MI5 lied to three courts when they said they had stuck to its policy of not confirming or denying their agents’ identities.

They had actually given information about this agent to BBC investigations correspondent Daniel De Simone as they tried to persuade him not to continue his investigation. MI5 has apologised to the BBC and all three courts.

Adam is joined by Daniel who explains the details of his investigation.
