My detector flashed a few times during the opening days of the election campaign, but nothing like as often as it had done in the past. Then on November 29, the flashes stopped completely.
I associated this cessation with the London Bridge terror incident and thought MI5 must be worried that the finger of blame will point at them for having a political activist under close observation, while a convicted terrorist was allowed to wander the streets, armed and dangerous.
This pattern of activity poses a problem for those who say that my detector is simply picking up background noise (perhaps freak electro-magnetic signals emitted by bats, or mice using walkie talkie radios). If the signals can stop entirely during an election campaign and re-start immediately that campaign ceases, it's hard to believe that they are anything other than what they really are: MI5 bugs.
