Nick pope explains this further in the below extract from this article in the Sun Paper :
Unrelated but interesting ... Pilot all over the world including this video below are often told to track and shoot down Ufos .. is this a wise thing people?
I also stand by my commitment to lobby for a new period of openness and honesty regarding such topics as the UFO and crop circles.
No government has the right to control the growth of human consciousness.
My article was written and support documents have been released for the first time to support this new era and to see to it that the peoples business really does bring in the tide of change that we all deserve.
Nick pope Former Uk Ministry of defense reply to Colin Andrews comments:
Colin Andrews and I have discussed this over the past few days, as his article implies I was involved ina cover-up.
Some of the issues Colin highlights have arisen because the line between official and private interest (even within government, the military and the intelligence agencies) can be blurred.
There are particular sensitivities and political difficulties
when members of the Royal Family are involved.
I agree that the MoD has downplayed its interest and involvement in the crop circle issue, as it has with the UFO phenomenon. This has been the policy for many years and it's no secret that I had to play my part in this when
I worked for the government.
Here's an article I wrote, setting out the official position i have on crop circles
Also by the way Colin says that the letter from the Queen is only the first stage of his release of documents exposing the crop circle phenomenon. The second stage will be letters from private industry and certain officials.. keep you posted on this guys..

Guys more big news again ...
As you may know on Friday NASA ufo hacker Gary McKinnon won the right to a judicial review of a Home Office decision to extradite him to the US. This basically means its more and more likely that Gary will win the right to have his trial in the UK and not be sent to the USA with a harsh sentence.
In addition the new Obama administration is aware that further attention to Gary's case is negative news for them as it comes at a particularly sensitive time - considering Obama's recent decision to shut down Guantanamo bay. The Bush administrations endorsed prosecution of Gary is losing all political and public support - especially in light of the new shocking evidence brought up from former NASA employees who support Gary's claims NASA has altered or destroyed its photos containing images of UFOs ....
Evidence against NASA could scrap NASA’s case against UK hacker Gary McKinnon. Credible witnesses have claimed that NASA has altered or destroyed its photos containing images of UFOs. This could become a legal and public relations concern for NASA.
The space agency is attempting to prosecute McKinnon for hacking into NASA computer files. McKinnon has stated that he saw UFO-related files in NASA’s computers. But NASA has denied any “cover-up”.
NASA’s claim of innocence faces a serious challenge. Some of the whistleblowers are former NASA employees and contractors with inside knowledge of NASA’s operation. If NASA’s destruction of public property is confirmed, the alleged cost of McKinnon’s hacking would be relatively insignificant.
Part of NASA's mission is to look for signs of intelligent life in outer space. So asking for more money to 'look', after they've already destroyed evidencethat they 'found', is a not going to be easy.
