Send us a text

Harold Wilson was prime minister for the UK in the 1960/70s. There was a mildly socialist programme that was being implemented. There was plotting against Wilson from inside his own party, the security services and later Right wing groups and private paramilitary armies were ready to step in to take control against labour and Tory governments as it was thought that there was to be a communist take-over. There are many stories of crimes and black propaganda being used during this time, crimes never punished, similar crimes that bought down the president in the Watergate affair were totally ignored in the UK.
