MI5/SS Logo
editShould the MI5/SS logo be mentioned in this article? I believe it is pre-1955 but have also read that it was used from the 1950's to 1970's. Any more information on this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.96.24.33 (talk • contribs) 21:42, 21 January 2009
Official Secrets Act
editWhat is the point of 'All employees of the service are bound by the Official Secrets Act'? It's the law, all of us in the UK are bound by it. 31.52.252.166 (talk) 20:42, 28 March 2019 (UTC)

MI5 Agents Can Murder, Kidnap and Torture
editIs anyone against stating this important fact in the lead? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.174.3.218 (talk) 21:25, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
- It's probably a bit more nuanced than that. I think it would be better to sort out the section "MI5#Participation of MI5 Agents in Criminal Activity first - the lead is only a summary of the article. I also think one might need to be careful not to exaggerate what is known. For example, the recent "Third direction" tribunal makes very clear that MI5 might have the power to do some things, but this does not mean they are immune from prosecution. -- zzuuzz (talk) 22:05, 1 January 2020 (UTC)
"Government Communications Planning Directorate"
editThe Guardian is reporting that Whitehall uses this title to refer to MI5. Should this, and also the organisation's involvement in the development of drone-supported covert surveillance technology, be included in the article? ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 10:54, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

- You haven't said what you think is wrong with the coordinates in the article, and they appear to be correct. If you still think that there is an error, you'll need to supply a clear explanation of what it is. Deor (talk) 14:28, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
