NFB Issue 10
It was a long time in the making, but finally came out. We are happy to say you can still buy issue 10 from our on-line shop on this site.
For those who want to buy the old-fashioned real mail way (cheque/postal order/well-hidden cash) visit the shop and click on the tab catchily titled ‘How to buy NFB by bank transfer or post using cash/cheque/postal order’. We never said life wasn’t complicated….
Given our web-site difficulties (overcome a long time ago) which came to a head just as issue 10 was being printed, a legitimate question. Did something make this particular issue especially worth getting, or alternatively (indeed simultaneously) make it one others would rather you didn’t see? We’ll let you judge that.
We can tell you for certain
1) At 88 pages it was the largest ever produced, with a full colour cover and the usual extensive referencing making it one of our best, if we might be so bold!
2) This issue is huge because of not one but two major stories inside:
First, we examined the death of MI6/GCHQ operative Gareth Williams. As you would expect we have a slightly different take on events than the mainstream media/spooks, including what were then new unpublished facts regarding his supposed internet use, the police investigation, and much more. Issue 11 followed this up, but we recommend reading this article beforehand. We will return to the case in NFB 13.
Second, we had the first (and so far only!) detailed explanation of the origins, details and reasons for the then deadly civil war between  Searchlight  magazine and their former front Hope Not Hate: we brought all their skeletons out of the cupboard, in fact dismantled the cupboard. This dispute has aspects reaching into the heart of government and the Labour opposition. Read it to find out how: and don’t be surprised if some involved should have had their collars felt. But of course didn’t. An article still relevant especially as the HNH victors have rewritten history since, not least for their 20 year ‘anniversary’ in 2024.
3) Other choice items included: news from the dying 9/11 Cult, a surreal ‘interview’ with ex-MI5 DG Eliza Manningham-Buller, Crypto-Anarchism, the BNP after the May 2012 local elections, MI6 & Lunar exploration, NFB correspondence with Al Qaeda, and regular features Fancy That/Updates. Something for everybody…
4) Because of the massive leap in UK postage costs, and the extra weight due to number of pages, the price for a single copy is greater than some other issues. Visit the shop on this site: see below.
