Duncan Campbell, award-winning former staff writer on the New Statesman, reports on the results of five years' research into the real face of British civil defence.
• Millions will die as a direct result of government civil defence policies. The facts about the effects of nuclear attack on Britain are being consistently understated.
• There will be no rescue or medical aid for the trapped and dying in the aftermath of a nuclear attack.
• Secret civil defence plans stress sealing off cities, interning protesters and pacifists, and impounding food and fuel supplies.
• The real and only priority of civil defense is the protection of government and its war-making capacity.
• Home Defence plans are primarily designed to suppress dissent and asset government control in any crisis - peace or war.
War Plan UK reveals...
• Where the "privileged few" will go: full details of hundreds of bunkers and who will use them.
• Fifty years of muddle, miscalculation, waste and government deception of the public over civil defence.
War Plan UK starts with the full plans and scenarios for Hard Rock 82 - the war game that the govermnment abandoned becuse British Councils refused to "play".
