About this Event

Spies and British Prime Ministers

Professor Richard Aldrich University of Warwick

In the early part of the 20th century prime ministers were often naively indifferent to espionage and secret intelligence. Increasingly the relationships between intelligence agencies and Number 10 became much closer, especially from the time of the Second World War. The increasing power of PMs since the war went hand in hand with the growth of the secret service. However, Intelligence also imperilled more than one British prime minister.
