Intelligence contacts
David Goodhart admitted to journalist Solomon Hughes that he had met with intelligence officials a number of times:
- John Scarlett Junior, son of MI6 boss John Scarlett, worked as an intern at Prospect in late 2007. Goodhart told me: ‘There was no connection with his father over his appointment.’ However, Goodhart said that ‘I did subsequently meet his father at a seminar and he thanked me for giving his son some useful experience.’
Hassan Butt
Journalist Aatish Taseer interviewed the British jihadist Hassan Butt for a an article which appeared inthe August 2005 edition of Prospect.[5]
A second interview with Butt, by journalist Shiv Malik, appeared in Prospect in 2007.[6]
The number of mentions of Butt in Prospect prompted Solomon Hughes to wonder whether the magazine had been pointed to him by the security services:
- editor Goodhart said that, ‘I did once hear that the services regard the Shiv Malik piece on 7/7 as essential reading inside the “security state”’ and added: ‘a Pentagon official once said the same.’
