Ugh! May and Corbyn are going to have a 'Leaders' debate'

[Sir C]

Is there any evidence that he was paid by the USSR? It was an accusation frequently thrown at people on the left, usually on a somewhat unsubstantiated basis.

He was passionate about parliamentary democracy though, and the whole process of clawing power off the elite, from Magna Carta to the Chartists and Suffragettes. Had he been around to help lead the Leave campaign from a democratic and self-determination perspective it would have been a more decisive victory, and less open to the nasty accusations of xenophobia etc.

SIS knew all about it. It was partly this fact which led to the planning of the military coup against Wilson's government in 1974.

It's a shame the army decided against; we'd have enjoyed years os strong and stable government under Lord Protector Mountbatten instead of 50 years of socialism.
