The Kew Files: Sam McBride unveils Secret memos on NI Secretary of State's IRA Intelligence Concerns

The Kew Files: Sam McBride unveils Secret memos on NI Secretary of State's IRA Intelligence Concerns

Sir Patrick Mayhew was Northern Ireland’s secretary of state between 1992 and 1997, a time when the peace process was just beginning, and the Troubles were still raging.

Files uncovered by the Belfast Telegraph in The National Archives at Kew in London have revealed new details about a secret memo Mayhew sent to PM John Major. The classified message suggests the IRA was in a stronger position at the time than previously thought, and questions some of the received wisdom about the intelligence war against the Provisionals. Sam McBride joins Ciarán Dunbar with his recent findings from the Kew Files.
