Winston Churchill UFO Cover Up
Royal Air Force Encounter with a UFO
UFO expert Dr. David Clarke says Winston Churchill had good reason to 'cover-up' UFO sightings during the war. Confidential Files reveal that Winston Churchill ordered a cover up of an RAF (Royal Air Force) encounter with a UFO to avoid mass panic.
The government took the threat of UFOs so seriously in the 1950s that UK
intelligence chiefs met to discuss the issue, newly-released files show.
The United Kingdom Ministry of Defence’s first "official study into UFOs" was called Flying Saucer Working Party or the FSWP which has its roots in a study commissioned in 1950 by the MOD’s then Chief Scientific Adviser, the great radar scientist Sir Henry Tizard.
As a result of his insistence that UFO sightings should not be dismissed without some form of proper scientific study, the Department set up what writer Nick Pope has described as "arguably the most marvellously-named committee in the history of the civil service".
Winston Churchill and the
UFO Cover-up
Hosts Jim Harold and Clayton Morris take listeners on a wild journey through the biggest paranormal news of the week.
The first clue was in the Secretary of State for Air’s response to Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s famous July 28th, 1952 memo in which he enquired “What does all this stuff about flying saucers amount to? What can it mean? What is the truth? Let me have a report at your convenience”.
The response, dated August 9th, 1952, began “The various reports about unidentified flying objects, described by the Press as “flying saucers”, were the subject of a full Intelligence study in 1951”.
There was some considerable discussion and debate about the terms of reference of the Flying Saucer Working Party. The final version read as follows:
The five man working party was chaired by a naval intelligence officer, Mr G. L. Turney, from one of the MOD’s scientific intelligence branches. All the members were specialists in the field of scientific and technical intelligence. One member, Wing Commander Myles Formby, Assistant Director of Intelligence (Technical) at the Air Ministry, also chaired the Guided Missiles Working Party.
The working party’s conclusions were set out in a document dated June 1951 and bearing the designation DSI/JTIC Report No. 7. It was entitled “Unidentified Flying Objects” and classified “Secret Discreet”.
The report comprises six pages (including the cover sheet) and is reproduced here in full.
Dr David Clarke of Sheffield Hallam University was the first person to obtain a copy of the report in 2001 under the Code of Practice on Access to government information. The discovery was made public in The Observer. The document was subsequently made available at The National Archives on January 1st, 2002.
