Don’t you love it when grammar are an afterthought?
The subject-verb issue here is actually just British English.
There’s no similar excuse for the rest of the cover. (Though I do have to admit I kind of love the very terse tombstone.)
Ehhh… don’t blame us. If it were solely down to local English variety, then it would also say “Were the UK government involved” too – government is just as much a collective noun as unit is.
I’d much prefer “A rogue MI5 unit is again running amok…”
Good point and thank you for the clarification!
Isn’t that the guy from Home Alone?
I thought it was Captain Picard on the Holodeck.
I read it as “An MI5 rogue unit are again”, then there’s a huge gap. So what is the actual title?
Does this mean an MI5 rogue unit were before? What is the name of that book?
