The documents – which include the desk diary of Soviet spy Donald Maclean; case files from Nazi persecution compensation claims; and masses of material removed from Hong Kong – were being held at Hanslope Park <http://www.hmgcc.gov.uk/about-us.aspx>, a secretive, high-security compound in Buckinghamshire that the FCO shares with intelligence agencies MI5 and MI6. http://bit.ly/1lGZoxq Source: http://www.vice.com/read/katie-engelhart-britains-secrets-mandy-banton-321 See if people are clicking on this link: http://bit.ly/1lGZoxq+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: https://bitly.com/pages/sidebar List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
