Sir Richard Dearlove, Master, Pembroke College, Cambridge University and Chief, Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) (1999-2004), and author of the infamous Dearlove Memo [2]had his lecture at Chatham House in London[3], interrupted by members of We Are Change UK. After disrupting the talk through a window with a megaphone, the activists attempted to effect a Citizen's arrest on Dearlove.
