Shell Wind

Shell Wind is a subsidiary of Shell.
==Background==
:"Renewable Energy
As part of efforts to brand itself as a forward-looking new-energy company, Shell has begun to invest in off-shore wind energy. Shell is a partner in the Blyth offshore wind project in Northumberland[77]. Industry analysts see this investment favourably, since unlike BPs investment in solar Shell already has expertise in off-shore operations which it can transfer to its renewables division."Corporate Watch, "Royal Dutch/Shell",Corp watch website. accessed 13/02/09

Sherman Kent

Sherman Kent was a senior CIA intelligence analyst who headed the Office of National Estimates from January 1952 to December 1967.Harold P. Ford, A Tribute to Sherman Kent, CIA, accessed 1 August 2009.
Abram Shulsky and Gary Schmitt have criticised a view of intelligence as social science which they attribute to Kent:
::If intelligence could reliably make the predictions implied in Kent's discussion, policy makers would indeed be foolish to ignore them, an their jobs would be made much easier. Kent's optimism on this point reflects the general optimism of the social sciences in the 1940s and 1950s.Abram N. Shulsky and Gary J. Schmitt, Silent Warfare: Understanding the World of Intelligence, Brassey's, 2002,p.174.
Shulsky and Schmitt's interpretation of Kent's views has been strongly criticised by David Habakkuk.David Habakkuk, sspaper.pdf, Sic Semper Tyrannis, 11 November 2005.David Habakkuk, Habakkuk on the neocons' use of intelligence, Sic Semper Tyrannis, 14 December 2007.

Shield

Shield was the name of a secret committee set up by radical right-wing activists and former intelligence officers in 1976 to brief Margaret Thatcher and her aides on ‘subversion’. The existence of ‘Shield’ was only revealed in 1993 when Brian Crozier wrote an article in The Times.
==Origins==
According to Crozier Shield was set up in 1976 at the instigation of Stephen Hastings. ‘Why were we doing this?’ Crozier asked in his The Times piece, ‘The problem was subversion: the deliberate undermining of the State and society.’ Brian Crozier, ‘A secret shield for the Lady’, The Times, 28 June 1993 Essentially Crozier and his allied believed that the Labour movement was captive to communists who wanted to create a Soviet style dictatorship in Britain. As Crozier explained: ‘The trades unions and the Labour Party had largely been taken over by the subversive Left. Many other areas of life were affected: the schools and universities, the media, the Churches.’ Brian Crozier, ‘A secret shield for the Lady’, The Times, 28 June 1993 Crozier reportedly called ‘subversion’ the ‘political equivalent of Aids’. Richard Norton-Taylor, 'With the right on his side', The Guardian, 4 August 1993
==Personnel==
The main figures in Shield were the Conservative MP and MI6 operative Stephen Hastings and the intelligence asset and right-wing activist Brian Crozier. They were joined by Nicholas Elliott, also an MI6 operative, Harry Sporborg, of Hambros Bank, as well as two young researchers, Peter Shipley and Douglas Eden. Brian Crozier, ‘A secret shield for the Lady’, The Times, 28 June 1993
==Activities==
The committee’s first project according to Crozier was to commission a report on the current state of ‘subversion’ and on the existing official counter-subversion agencies. The report, which ran to about 100 pages, was drafted by an unidentified former senior member of the Secret Intelligence Service, an old friend of Stephen Hastings and Crozier. The final draft was completed in May 1977. The report proposed the reorganisation of the intelligence and security services, arguing that ‘MI-6 (foreign intelligence) was basically in good shape whereas MI-5 (security) was not.’ Between May 1977 and July 1979, Shield produced 15 strategic papers on similar themes and three papers on contingency planning for the forthcoming Tory government. The reports were always given to Margaret Thatcher and, on request, to Lord Carrington, William Whitelaw, and Sir Keith Joseph. Brian Crozier, ‘A secret shield for the Lady’, The Times, 28 June 1993
Mrs Thatcher suggested that Shield should be attached to 10 Downing Street or the Cabinet Office. Crozier claimed that both William Whitelaw and Keith Joseph. were in favour, but the plan was killed off by Carrington. Richard Norton-Taylor, 'With the right on his side', The Guardian, 4 August 1993
