And I think of Old Etonian himself George Orwell writing a grassing-up letter about various left-wing progressive intellectuals who he considered unfit to work for the Foreign Office Information Research Department. These included a number of individuals who, unlike himself, had been in the Nazi 'Black Book'. E.g. Naomi Mitchison. (Probably also a number of sandal-wearing vegetarians, etc.) Who were surely a lot less problematic than this lot.
Floreat Etonia....
