UFOS HAVE BEEN SPOTTED NEAR THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT, STONEHENGE AND BLACKPOOL PIER, FILES RELEASED BY THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES REVEALED THURSDAY.
The Ministry of Defence had a special UFO desk for sightings which were recorded in files running to 4,400 pages between 2007 and 2009.
The Parliament sighting was reported in a message left on the desk's hotline answering machine.
The caller claimed "green, red and white lights" were seen "static in the sky for about half an hour" and surrounded by aircraft on the night of February 12, 2008.
In an email headed UFOs Over Stonehenge? another flying saucer spotter sent photographs as attachments, drawing MoD officials' attention to the "discoid shapes" in the background and adding: "I'm sure you get this kind of thing every day!"
Yet another spotter sent photographs taken at Blackpool Pier in October 2008.
The writer pointed to aircraft in the background which had neither been seen nor heard when the pictures were taken.
Gordon Brown was lobbied
by Ufologist to take UFO
sightings more seriously
HE ASKED THE MOD TO CHECK "IF THERE WERE ANY MANOEUVRES IN THE AREA TO EXPLAIN THE CRAFT?"
An internal MoD message confirmed there had been no military manoeuvres on the day in question.
But one official told another: "Every-one who has seen the photographs thinks that two of the photos look like stunt kites that have broken loose from their control strings.
"The third looks like a seagull head-on."
A man in Carlisle left a message claiming he had been "living with an alien" for some time and it was moving things around his house.
In a somewhat bewildering response an internal MoD memo said: "Can we please get back to him and explain what is happening?"
ANOTHER CALLER REPORTED THAT ALIENS HAD ABDUCTED HIS DOG, CAR AND TENT WHILE HE WAS CAMPING WITH FRIENDS NEAR CARDIFF IN 2007.
In a straight-faced official response the MoD wrote: "Abduction, kidnap and theft are criminal offences and therefore would be a matter for the civilian police, not the MoD."
A Coventry woman who saw "two orange balls" hovering over her garden in July 2008 contacted the MoD to ask if she and her springer spaniel "could be contaminated".
The UFO desk was closed in 2009 after a briefing by the RAF's Air Command saying it was wasting time and resources and there was "no suggestion of any extra-terrestrial military threat to the UK".
The files also reveal that so-called ufologists who wanted sightings to be investigated more seriously wrote to lobby former prime minister Gordon Brown and even the Queen.
Dr David Clarke, author of The UFO Files, said: "The last pieces of the puzzle have finally been revealed with this insight into the last days of the UFO desk.
"These files spell out clearly why the MoD decided it no longer needed to keep tabs on sightings, even those made by 'credible' people such as police officers and pilots.
"The last files are all in the public domain. People can draw their own conclusions about whether 'the truth' is in these files or still out there."
