This Woman just sounds like another DISGRUNTLED EMPLOYEE ?!? and the fact that she speaks in Plural "we", should be a warning sign? when she got in the Secrete Service she didnt know what she was getting into? does anyone know ANY Spy Agency in the entire World who hasnt FuK$ UP like this?
Need a Minutes With podcast with her.
Actor.. Proof of all claims Required.
Great respect and good luck 🕊️

When exposing a crime is being treated like a crime, you are being ruled by criminals

Romans 6.23
For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Dirty work by intelligence agancies are no crimes. They are a hard necessity. It's often heartbreaking work, but it has to be done by the right folks, for the greater better.
@@Retroscoop I suppose you believe the government is here to help you...
@@Retroscoopsure buddy whatever helps you sleep
So, your point is, presumably, that if we know that our enemies are attacking us, that we should 'turn the other cheek'. If innocent people get harmed, and laws are broken, in the process of defending the public and the rule of law; how many people would be harmed, and how many laws would be broken if such a defense wasn't in place? Your oversimplification is just a smoke-screen for excusing the attackers. Just like terrorists saying "You made me blow those people up".
This is a good woman. We need more people like this in the police both local and federal, military and the intelligence agencies.
Sadly its too late now....we ( the Western World ) have all become police states....because its easier to control us...WE HAVE BECOME WHAT WE ACCUSE OTHERS OF....and sadly there is no way out
I love Sings from kenny and Dolly. Anyway, the world must be United to see Ukraine facsism defeated plus there western sponsors so that we can still enjoy this kind of music throughout. Israeli Nazim mist also get thesame fate as the Hitler fascism. God bless Russia. Long Live Putin.
Really, that's what the world needs, more women like this? I think we need less women like this. As in women who would never even consider joining the CIA, or the MI6, or whatever they call it in England. Not ones who join, because they're so personally ambitious that being in the state dept. isn't good enough, and they get talked into something even juicer. And then eventually what's left of their soul can't take it any longer, and so they turn state's evidence.
So I would say that's not what the world is craving right about now. I guess it's better than nothing.
Jesus Christ is the only hope in this world no other gods will lead you to heaven

Wrong. She's a good woman yes, she's the wrong choice as a field agent however.
I feel so bad for her. Imagine choosing to risk your career, love life for not much to change that’s a sickening thought. Bless her ❤️
who asked
It's hard to put a price on ones integrity and sense of morality.
Snowden did even more, and he got trapped in Russia
Silly thing to do.
Mistrust and paranoia is best created by resigning and blowing a loudly traceable whistle.
University recruiting always ends that way.
EGOCENTRICALLY.
In 1970 we already had more technical equipment than she knew.
Oh well.
She has her tale to tell.
They're trying to up the tariff, for each offence, to 14 years, for whistle-blowers and journalists. They are the enemy.
Against all odds, not for money or fame, for no meaningful change to be made after your efforts... you still chose to do the right thing. People like you, are heroes to me. ❤
if there is no meaningful change, why do it? There was change. It's inevitable. How do you know it wsnt for fame? Not that it makes it wrong, it was the right thing to do. She sold books from it etc. so money ws involved. You r just making assumptions ....I think it was great, though.
@@Jamie-js3qw if you don't stick to your core values, due to peer group pressure or fear of reprisals, eventually we will all end up in a race to the bottom. Lead by example, and when you're faced with your own mortality someday, trust me?. You want to be at peace when that happens. If you're religious, or atheist, it won't matter when you check out.. I'd much rather go out with a near death hallucination, journey, final flicker of my candle to occur with a clear conscience. You don't want to find out that death is a long hallucination where your life flashes before your eyes, it feels like forever, and all you see is the things you were involved in that killed innocent people.
Unless you are a sociopath, I suppose.. Then I guess you'd just need some popcorn..
:P
@@Jamie-js3qw Sometimes, even though we may lose the battle, we must still stand and fight.
The proverbial genie, of course, is well and truly out of the bottle.
@Jamie What a stupid question, lol.
Yeah, murdering foreign politicians or pushing for a regime change in order to benefit from it is heroic. Scumbags...
Annie saying at the end that whistleblowing cost her everything but she feels nothing has truly changed, and may even be worse than before, is a genuinely haunting statement.
"If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face- for ever."
"not unless you are a smart motherfucking pawn" - Bodie Broadus
it’s like john oliver’s interview with snowden, you can see the moment he gets reminded of it and has a mini existential crisis…
It's true things have gotten worse our whistleblowing has gotten ppl only poisoned, disability, loss of life loss of everything
And the world has become worse.
90% whistleblowers are dead.
If everybody refuses to vote at the next election they have no mandate
@@saint-miscreant The UK west are openly funding Nazis, while you can be jailed for using slurs in the UK. And the public don't care.
What a wonderfully moral woman. This is the type of person we need in government; honourable, honest, and emotionally intelligent. Great woman!
I'd love to see a series on whistleblowers with Annie. Her story and the way she tells it is so compelling.
Liars often are compelling.
@@paulanderson7796 you sound so compelling, go on...
Would be absolutely heartbreaking to see governments crushing the Snowdens and Assanges of our world.
@@mayankexodus It absolutely would be heartbreaking. Snowden was lucky, Putin has granted him refuge in Russia. Personally I think Putin is one of the finest diplomats the world has ever seen. He is not even remotely like the monster Western media makes out that he is.
I am not sure about this Annie Machon character. She seems like an attention seeker to me.
@@paulanderson7796 where is she lying?
I saw Annie give a talk at a conference for cannabis reform in Bristol back in 2013. She was facinating to listen to. I remember a point she made about how the war on drugs is directly funding terrorism, and how the government are completely aware of this. 'Deliberately unjoined thinking'.
It is strange, isn't it? It's not hard to work out that making sure people can only get drugs from criminals means that drug use funds terrorism.
Then there are all of the social, health and tax benefits of taking a public health perspective when it comes to drugs, rather than crime perspective.
It seems the only thing keeping us from decriminalising or even legalising drugs (and therefore achieving all of the related benefits) is people's irrational fears and unwillingness to be open.
The same people who are waging a war against drugs are also the same people benefiting from terrorism, fear is the currency that rules the world. If everyone knew this they would know how corrupt and evil the basterds are that control governments of the west
@@fab-ian Selling drugs on shelves is pretty dumb.
@@fab-ian they want terrorists and criminals in order to justify their draconian laws and powers and restrictions of freedom etc, which they use to control us.
@Manic Miner they do
This is super interesting and Annie displays a huge amount of bravery not only then but also now to talk about this. Especially admitting that it hasn’t necessarily changed much, but at the very least she can live with herself knowing she tried to make a change to the system that’s in place 👍
Once she left the security services and blew the whistle, she was no longer a threat to them, so they have left her alone.
she is a lunatic Gaddafi was not only a murderer he was a rapist
What a beautiful well spoken educated woman she is. Fantastic insight into how our intelligence servics work. Good luck lady ❤
Ha, 'intelligence services' the biggest oxymoron on the planet. Killers. Assassins. Soul destroyers is closer to the mark.
Well spoken , just because she has a different accent 😮 ?
Eye of the beholder
Annie is correct, we are being watched 24/7, even if our record is clean.
Yeah! But they don't won't the Chinese to be looking over their shoulders.
That kind of mass surveillance is impossible on a practical level. Even if you can track every keystroke, every syllable, it is not possible to analyse that volume of data in any way at all. Intelligence is about knowing what data to gather.
@@paulanderson7796it is with ai..
@@paulanderson7796I came here to say essentially the same thing lol 😂 these people watch waaaay too many movies
Sad ting is when our services just watch and watch and dont act ..no point to them! They just watch n tell ..and watch innocents die..waste of bloody time and money ..ie ; they knew about Lee Rigbys murderers 10 years before they struck ..but they just kept watching them from a distance ...seems perverted and slow ..if you did that to average toddler theyd all grow up as crims ..first sign of misbehaviour severe kick in butt ..now we have thousands of terrorists pro Hamas and Pro Isis marching the streets with signs very boldly ..working in govmnt offices too ..a joke
Not only she's extremely eloquent telling a unique story, but her tone has a soothing effect on me. One of my favourites interviews to date.
Deeznuts also might have a very soothin effect.
That is so telling, so the hypno voice really does work on the weak minded, the training she recieved has paid off! God help us from women like her!
That are not exactly the most important qualities needed to become an effective field agent for an intelligence agency I'm afraid.
She should have become newsreader, a radio reporter or indeed, a diplomat, fine with me. But not a field agent.
That's not her mistake, that underlines how unprofessional the recruitment of field agents still was in those days, even after Philby & Co.
Not sure about how that is today. If it is still as unprofessional, it's no wonder the Russians and Chinese remain the real spy masters.
I could listen to Annie talk about anything. She’s amazing
I was chilled to the bone .....not by her voice but by the content she spoke about!
@@johnson2joy tbeb[ner
I feel for Annie. Why is it that good people with a moral compass who bravely seek to speak the truth in order to keep the masses informed, aware and able to be protected are the very ones who are then hunted, harrassed, stalked, bullied and targeted from the top, to the point of losing everything you have. I'm out of money, through no fault of my own and will now lose my house. I've had a "series of unfortunate events" as the film of the same title portrays. So many awful things, intentional underhand things have been thrust not just at me but at my family over the years. All for being honest! Something is truly wrong when innocent people are targeted by excuses for people who have access to your life, when they are not fit to! Stay safe Annie. Thank you for the insight. God bless you and your family 👍
Did they really think it was going to be any different?
Absolute respect for both of you for standing up for what was right!
Respect to her and all the couragous people with unsuppressed sense of justice!
The eyes tell no lies, she knows a lot and it haunts her.
It's a terrible burden.
especially when few even believe you.
I would like to thank ladbible for doing these interviews. Honest and interesting.
A very brave individual who was prepared to sacrifice herself for the greater good. She deserves the highest accolades society can give.
"..the greater good"? By undermining the defense that we have mounted against our enemies, that is the pursuit of 'the greater good'. Better to have no defense and suffer the consequences than have a defense that doesn't always work as you might have wished. I guess if you are one of the attackers, that would be correct.
@@thePronto Accountability will always benefit democracy in the end.
I remember the Bishopsgate bombing. I was sitting in my living room in Archway, North London, when I felt the shock-wave from the blast shake the window!
This is why, despite all the fascination around secret agencies, and despite my own personal qualifications, I could never work in such an environment. I remember low level intelligence jobs recruiters coming to the campus and making it all appear fantastic, but I ran away from them at full speed. The injustices would make my blood boil and I would surely crash.
Same. Although I would like to anonymously show fucked up shit of whatever agency I worked for if I ever did.
Being a fantasist isn't a qualification
Me too - I had a job ideal for spying on a certain culture but I couldn’t do that given my own ancestry and the British establishment have never been held in high esteem 😮
I’m not proud of my dad who died in action in the Pacific War , a 2WW Commando jungle warfare specialist from a mountain tribe in Fiji island.
July, 1943 , I was 6 months old.
He died for the US Marine and the British , but they canceled my war pension in August 1952 !
I was 9 years old , I told my mother don’t cry I will take care of you .
Thanks !
a question that always pops in my mind whenever I watch a interview like this, how do these people protect themselves/get rid of these people hunting for them and live to talk about it?
What good would it do to shoot the messenger precisely? The message is very clear and consistent no matter what side of the political divide you're listening from. Be obedient, don't question the narratives and your social credit score will determine your quality of life.
There is another layer that watches them
@@CavalierNTXhat good would it do? LOL How about scaring future potential whistle blowers? 😂😂
@@td2222 if whistle blowing were legit then we wouldnt have needed Wikileaks would we now? She does a pretty good job of telling people how pointless blowing whistles is...
Good question, don't be too obvious. She has put herself in the media to have somewhat of a blanket of security, temporally. I bet with 10 years; she'll randomly have a "heart attack."
Very brave lady, I take my hat off to her, and now in 2023 we still call ourselves a democracy, thankyou Annie for sharing your story. Stay safe❤😊
Very interesting. The case of the Palestinian youths arrested was very sad , similar to the many Irish who were jailed and falsely accused of IRA membership. Fair play to this whistle blower . Very brave lady
Irish is a different kettle of fish
@@TH3CAPN yeah we had 800 years of it but thank God things have slowly shifted. Peace is imperative to overall happiness. Sometimes peace comes through struggle and violence but thats certainly not the ideal 😉
Me, me, me, me, all about me, all about the Irish.
@@herv7539 🤣🤣🤣🤣 gobshite .. that's a word we have for you
@Herv You can't have it both ways ! What the Russians are doing in Ukraine is exactly what the British state did in Ireland 🇮🇪 !
Respect to you for speaking up! I hope you are safe and well.
Huge respect for Annie. She came from a privileged background and could’ve easily kept quiet about the situation to continue living a cushy life, but she cast it all aside, using her skills and knowledge for justice.
Legend
We're only hearing her side of the story though.
For example they've never proven the Bishopsgate bomb could have been stopped, they didn't for example name the people that supposedly MI5 would have been following, or what exactly was "bungled" for example whether it was the IRA smuggling the bomb in and they got lucky with a section of lights and managed to slip away down a road that wasn't covered or what exactly.
Her fella also went completely insane and started raving about aliens and now thinks he's a woman 😂 not exactly the sort of person you should be trusting to have a reasonable discussion based on facts with.
Great interview, very honest! 10/10
Extraordinarily brave people you and your partner are!Smart,too!Thank you for being!
This is the first interview on RUclips I've not had to speed up the playback, she speaks at a class pace 👏
A very gutsy lady 🤟✨
thanks for following the truth! Without people like you these state organizations would be a lot worse and we a lot further towards a police state. Even if it maybe seems like not much has changed, in the long run it is so important to get truths out again and again. So that the bigger mass can see what is really going on and can eventually stop this abuse of power and money. I‘m really thankful for your brave work!
This series is fabulous. Annie's story and message is so important as much now as then.
So now I've just realised how UK Govt - and no doubt Keir Starmer - are so easy helping US govt out with Assange - we're becoming particularly bad with not just the intel whistleblowers but the press 14 years prison per charge of prison!!?. Chilling.
But the heroic actions like her and David's need to be kept in mind.
To sacrifice your career and normal life for the sake of your beliefs, "doing the right thing", must have taken a lot of courage and a very strong conviction. I admire you and David for that. I hope things are better for you now!
Professor McGonagall is that you?
😂😂😂😂
I thought it was Maggie Smith as well lol. Maybe her long-lost secret spy sister...
eyes like that are called “gülü szem” in Hungarian
or “kiguvado”
No. Just Maggie Smith’s doppelgänger.
As an avid watcher of The Behavior Panel (Body Language Experts for non-watchers), I thought that was very interesting that she did a ''cut'' move with her finger on her throat while saying the phrase ''a slide towards totalitarism'' at the end of the video, I think that speaks loudly of her feeling of dread about a democracy ending. Chilling.
thankyou for sharing this story. incredibly important and i wish more people knew about this.
Brave lady indeed
her insights about surveillance and police states are very ominous. great interview guest.
Great speaker could listen to her all day, really interesting content ...

Thank you so much
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you.
Several years ago, I was about to join the Royal Marines, when I was approached by an individual dressed in a naval officers uniform, with no rank insignia, no medals etc. He wasn't navy though, he saluted in the 'palm outward' style used by the Army, Marines & Airforce not the ''Palm down' of the navy. He had Laurel leaves on his cap, which meant he was too senior an officer to be interviewing candidates. He chatted informally, mentioned a few things that let me know he knew exactly who I was... and then asked me about a friend (who was also in the process of joining the Marines) and if he'd shown any political leanings (I answered honestly - 'no') and 'if a place in the same troop could be guaranteed' would I be prepared to report back on him? I politely declined and ended any military career.
I mentioned this to someone I trusted who was 'in the know', and they said he was certainly the same character that had approached him in the preceding weeks. The trusted confidante told me he was certainly intelligence and that if I'd have done it, I'd have been military intelligences 'bitch' for life. Or if I'd have continued with pursuing my military career after refusing, it probably would have stalled my career (if I'd have been allowed in) and I'd have found myself being refused all promotion and training courses.
Wow 😮

The thrilling account of how one individual exposed government secrets and had to go on the run highlights the power of whistleblowers in holding those in power accountable. This kind of bravery should be featured on OTR, it is very relevant in the Philippines.
The world feels like a much better place with human beings with your integrity. Thank you. For truly caring. It changes everything 🙂🌻🧡

LEGEND.
Thanks for sharing
the world needs more people like this
Imagine being the guy who recommended her, in the back of the office as the entire HR is watching this video
I met Annie and David a few times and have a lot of respect for what they both did.
Fascinating.
I have two video's on my channel of what happened to me 15 years ago after making a complaint at Immigration, where I worked and after applying to Mi5. My future was destroyed. I had been talking about how girls were being abused at the Home Office and how Immigration were corrupt. Mi5 , the IPT, Police , MP's all knew about this before I did the video's and they weren't of much help. I totally understand where she is coming from and in my experience, no one wants to know. I didn't want to know what I was told, but I think it's in the Public interest to know that you can be watched , manipulated and caused to be dangerous to yourself or others by the Home Office and Mi5. Had I died , the truth would not have come out.
I remember you sister soldier ✌️...it's been a while since you've popped up into my recommendations...nice to see you again 👍
I once dated a girl who works for MI5. She wasn’t aloud to talk about many things. I’m not making a joke when I say it was refreshing not to have to talk about our jobs at home.
Or did she just want to not tell you where she actually worked/talk about work at all and that was a good excuse? 😂
Perhaps 😂@@esmeecampbell7396
She definitely worked down at the local gentleman’s club and didn’t want you to ask her about her day every time she got home
@@kay.kay.kay.😂
She wouldn't have told you she worked for MI5 if she did.
What an amazing lady Anne is. I could listen to her talk for hours.
Annie and her partner sacrificed a good chunk of their lives to try to do good, and it is quite honourable. I can't help wondering though if they had gone the anonymous route or become a mole for investigative papers and slowly leaked information whether it would have made a bigger impact, i.e. just been a lot more calculating.
The interviewer, no offence to her, sounds bored, annoyed or outright rude in each interview. It's her tone. The quality of her questions also leaves a lot to be desired. I would kill for the opportunity to interview such interesting people.
But kudos to ladbible tv for covering interesting people and topics!
I thought the same thing about the interviewer! Annie Machon deserved a more engaged interviewer.
I’ve thought this!
I disagree. I think the interviewer came across as impartial and the tone was appropriate for the gravity of the topic
If you are going to be a whistle blower, your story MUST somehow make it clear that what happened was a systemic failure, not a one-off slip-up. The establishment will always claim it was the latter and make it look like you caused a great deal of trouble over one small slip-up. It is extremely difficult to counter that narrative especially when you are the small guy and your opponents have all the power and all the connections.
Welcome to MI7!
I personally have the entire 007 series. And never get tired of it.
Yes, that goes between Sligo and Galway.
Agent Argyle...The Kings Men😮
Chilling!
Bless you. Thank you for following your conscience and for being so brave.
Incredible story and quite disturbing to know some of what goes on “behind the scenes!” I can’t imagine what we don’t know or aren’t privy to …
Tip of an iceberg for sure.
Ironically it's really the other way around.
Think about it logically, a minor mistake in what was otherwise a successful assassination plot leads to the wrong car getting blown up, and some civilians dying. Not great, but let's not pretend assassinating world leaders is easy, even in Libya, they have protection, the fact it went ahead at all is impressive as the people who "walked in" could potentially have just taken the cash and run away...
Now that isn't great but it isn't massively terrible either, you're implying the stuff we don't hear about is much worse, affecting many thousands across the UK every week levels of bad, BUT if a couple people getting killed in Libya was enough to cause these people to turn whistleblower then you really think NOBODY else in MI5 would for something many times worse? That doesn't stand to reason at all, everyone who works there is a human being, sure a disproportionately high number will be psychopaths but not all of them.
When MI5 does something genuinely unequivocally "good", really well and stops a major terrorist attack, we naturally don't hear about it. They don't shout every success because it would make the next success less likely, the stuff we DON'T hear about is more likely fine.
Imagine all the things they have stopped from happening while your at it
