7/7- MIND THE GAP
(Sun 2nd / 7pm / £3 on the door, £2 in advance)
MI5 whistleblower presents new evidence to demand London bombings inquiry
Ex-Counter Intelligence Officer David Shayler introduces the premiere of a Bristol made documentary which challenges the official story of the London bombings.
Almost a year on from that day and the government has still not accepted the need for a public inquiry. Timed to mark the first anniversary of the 7/7 attacks Mind the Gap presents new evidence that contradicts the government's version of events.
David Shayler's job in MI5 was protecting the British public from terrorist attack. He has studied the events of 7/7 thoroughly for a soon-to-be-released book and has concluded that the official account of four lone suicide bombers just does not add up. Highlighting little-known facts from last year's attacks he will give the audience a briefing, much like one he would have given to the Prime Minister of the day.
Why are there so many gaps in the official story? A vast amount of
unsubstantiated stories have been published by the press, why the confusion? Were the men duped? Were they really suicide bombers? Why have no CCTV pictures of the suspected bombers on the tube network been released? What are the parallels with the 9/11 attacks?
These and many more questions challenging the official version of events will be explored. As survivors, politicians and religious leaders are again calling for a public inquiry into the attacks, this film shows why such an inquiry is necessary.
After the film there will be an opportunity for audience questions and open debate.
Copies of the film will be available.
Tickets will be available through Ticket Web - follow link on officialconfusion.com

David Shayler's biog:
On graduating in 1989 David Shayler joined the Sunday Times. Six months later, he left the newspaper to set up his own student publication with a circulation of 25,000. In 1991, David joined MI5 as a counter-intelligence officer.
In 1996, after being briefed about an MI6-funded operation to assassinate Colonel Gaddafi of Libya which killed innocent civilians he resigned from the service. In August 1997, he submitted a series of articles blowing the whistle on his previous employers. He fled to France before he could be arrested. A year later, he was imprisoned with a view to extradition. The French court refused the request because David's alleged offence was political.
In 2000, David voluntarily returned to the UK . In 2002 he was tried and convicted under the Official Secrets Act and sentenced to six months in prison. Since his release, he has helped his partner Annie Machon, also a former MI5 officer, to write Spies, Lies and Whistleblowers, MI5, MI6 and the Shayler Affair, which details corruption and incompetence at the heart of the British intelligence establishment.
David has now turned his full attention to exposing false flag operations like 9/11. He is a key member of the UK and Ireland 911 Truth Campaign. He has more recently been investigating the inconsistencies regarding the 7th July bombings for a book which is to be finished soon.
