From 1995 until now Fulton has been fighting the MoD - demanding they clear his criminal record, give him a new identity, a relocation package and provide a military pension. "If they hadn't screwed me, then I wouldn't be screwing them now," he says. "If the IRA ever find me I'm dead. I accept I'm a marked man, but I intend to take everyone down with me who was in on this - no matter how high up the stink goes."

Ulster's "dirty war" is in the headlines again following a BBC Panorama programme which aired allegations that British Military Intelligence colluded with terrorists in a campaign of assassination. The Panorama programme - which concludes tonight - was largely based on long-running investigations by the Sunday Herald and other newspapers.

The allegations have deepened today with one former British agent claiming he was told by his military handlers that his collusion with paramilitaries was sanctioned by Margaret Thatcher herself.
