Corbyn’s StB (Statna bezpecnost – Czechoslovak secret service) contact agent Ján Sarkocy has just confirmed to Czech press agency that Corbyn knowingly met with him several times, and he was even paid for his information he gave to our secret service by StB. According to Sarkocy there were several members of the Labour party who worked for StB.

‘Stupid’ Jeremy Corbyn willingly supplied COMMUNIST REGIME in bid to ’undermine democracy’

Jan Sarkocy, who met with Jeremy Corbyn in the 1980s, dismissed claims that he believed he was just a diplomat.

Mr Sarkocy said: “Everybody knew that ‘diplomat’ was just a cover for a spy.

“It was a conscious cooperation. Diplomat and agent were the same things.”

Mr Corbyn has denied being an informer, however, Mr Sarkocy said that the information revealed by the MP was “rated in Moscow as the number one”.

The spy - who was expelled from the UK by Margaret Thatcher and now lives in Bratislava - said it was routine for the Czechoslovak secret services to pay informants.

However, he stated that he had not personally handed over any money to Mr Corbyn.

Mr Sarkocy was expelled from the UK by Margaret Thatcher and now lives in Bratislava.

He said that more meetings - in addition to the three disclosed earlier this week - took place between the pair.

He said: “Mr Corbyn was an honest man, but stupid.”

He went on to add that the Labour leader was a regular source of information for the Czechoslovak security services - the Statni Bezpecnost.

Světlana Ptáčníková, who heads the Czech Security Forces Archive disputed the new allegations. “If Corbyn had been an agent, his file would have been under a different category,” she said, explaining that the StB had strict rules regarding file management, and that once someone was recruited, the new agent’s file would have been categorized differently. “The former agent’s [Sarkocy’s] allegations are in direct contradiction with archival materials,” she said.

Sarkocy was expelled from Great Britain in 1989 along with several other agents. In the final report about their meetings, Corbyn was described as “RS,” a person of interest, rather than an agent, ČT 24 reported. There are passages in the files indicating that the secret service was trying to dispel any suspicion that Corbyn may have regarding possible StB involvement, Ptáčníková said. The file, which uses capital letters for the Labour leader’s name, states that all expenses should be handled so that “CORBYN could not deduce any operative interest,” from the StB.
