Will Owen
William James Owen (18 February 1901 – 3 April 1981) was a British miner and politician, whose career as a Member of Parliament was ended by his trial under the Official Secrets Act 1911 for giving secrets to Czechoslovak intelligence. Although found not guilty, it was claimed by intelligence historian Christopher Andrew in ''The Defence of the Realm'' that “he was almost certainly guilty as charged”.〔Christopher Andrew ''The Defence of the Realm: The Authorized History of MI5'', London: Allen Lane, 2009, p413; Michael Evans ("TGWU leader Jack Jones was in contact with KGB, says MI5 book: Secrets from the MI5 files", ) ''The Times'', 6 October 2009〕 ==Miner== Owen was born in Bedwellty, Monmouthshire and went to Blaina Boys' Central School, which he left at the age of 13 to go to work in the local coal mines. However he was determined to better himself and in 1920 left work to study at the London Labour College. When his course ended he returned to Blaina to become a Tutor Organiser for the National Council of Labour Colleges, arranging for other local miners to attend further education courses.
