The Fourth Protocol- A British Revolution

Marky Bunny

This is something I have been thinking of doing for a long time, and was briefly started on this site a couple of years ago by someone else.
This takes the events of the Book "The Fourth Protocol" written in 1984 and based in 1987 as if they had gone as planned in the book.
The format will be based on my "2010 Presidential election" thread in terms of News articles and pictures....
It will start in the next couple of days with the Nuclear bomb going off in Suffolk.....

"Good Evening, this is the BBC news at Ten o'clock.

The General Election campaign has been enlivened by a Soviet Union guarantee to offer the whole of Western Europe, both for neutrals and NATO nations alike, a nuclear-free zone in perpetuity, if the United States and its Allies does the same.

Defence Secretary Tom Lockwood who was campaiging in Luton this morning was howled down by a crowd mostly made of CND members when refused the Societ guarantee by saying "the removal of European/US defences was verifiable while Societ warhead detargeting was not and secondaly that the Warsaw pact forces had a four to one conventional weapon superiority over Nato".

In other election news, the lastest opinion polls show the Conservatives with a narrow lead over Labour".

If Kinnock wins in 1987, why does Ken Livingston immediately challenge him for leadership?

Its part of the book, that after the Nuclear explosion and Labour wins that the "Hard Left" planned to remove Kinnock as Leader.
To quote from the book
"In the immediate wake of a Labour victory at the polls, before the triumphant Leader had been called to the palace, an alternative candidate would be nominated to the extraordinary meeting of the Elecoral College. He would be the pre-selected Hard Left nominee to become Britain's first devout Marxist-Leninist Premier."

Earlier in the Book Livingstone is mentioned regards to take over of the GLC in 1981, I have just used him in that position.

Weird. Wouldn't people be angry, seeing as how they were voting for Kinnock's policies and not Livingstone's?

I am just going from the book, that was the whole point of the book at least, the bomb swings the "floating vote" to Labour, then the hard left remove Kinnock as Leader.

Parliament was recalled and met this afternoon in emergency session due to the Nuclear explosion at the USAF base at Bentwaters in Suffolk.

Prime-Minister Margaret Thatcher expressed her shock at the explosion and to those who had lost their lives. She said that the details of what happended where still very sketchy and that a UN team was in the process of reaching the site to attempt to determine what had actually taken place.

Labour Leader Neil Kinnock said that the accident proved once and for all the risk of Nuclear weapons and said that it showed that the Labour Party was right to have a policy of unilateral nuclear disarment.

It has been confirmed that the General Election planned for next Thursday, June 18th will still take place".

"Good evening, this is the BBC News at Ten o'clock

As UN nuclear teams arrive in the UK to visit the site of the Nuclear explosion at USAF Bentwarers in Suffolk, the political arguments have taken a dramatic turn within the last two hours.

Israeli nuclear physicist Doctor Nahum Wisser has flown to Prague and given a press conference in which he claims that he had worked with the Americans while on exchange visits in the development of ultra-small nuclear warheads. He said that during these visits that he repeatedly warned the American Airforce and the Defence Department that these ultra-small warheads of around one and half kiloton's were not stable for deployment but his warnings were ignored as they were impatient to deploy the new warheads so as to increase the range of their F-5s by being able to take on board extra fuel. He said that he believed that it was one of these warheads that exploded at Bentwaters.

CND has called a public rally to take place in London tommorrow morning to protest against the Americans and the nuclear explosion".

It's a good book that.

How realistic was the possibility that the UK could ever turn Communist?

Probably not, but I am doing this based on the plan in the book, although the end product might not end the way the Soviets or the Hard left wanted!!
