From Wikipedia:

Walker privately told journalists that he thought Harold Wilson was a "proven Communist" and that there was a "Communist cell" in Downing Street.[27] He advocated Enoch Powell as Prime Minister and favoured "tougher" measures against the IRA. He was an early member of the Conservative Monday Club and in 1984 became Patron of the ultra-conservative and anti-communist Western Goals Institute, a position he retained for the rest of his life.
I don't quite get this, it would be ten years or so since the coup yet he is still alive and pushing the same wheel barrow, how so? Surely unless he succeeded that's a tad unlikely?

I used the quote as a response to the poster who questioned why Powell would be PM in this TL. Its not linked to the story itself. I should have clarified that.

@ nezza, I really like what you are writing. Please don't ever take any of my comments as being negative
 
A knock on the door

"come in"

"Sorry to disturb you Prime Minister but there's been a development"

"Please tell me its good news"

"Not really"

"Well"

"There's been a mass meeting taking place at Speakers corner. Its ended now but...

"But what?"

"The meeting has turned into a march. Its heading for Downing Street"

The People, united will never be defeated

Jack heard that chant over and over again, it had started off as quiet and far away but it had got closer and louder, and louder.

Now it was reverberating from wall to wall from No 12 to No 10, from the Chief Whip's office on one side to the tanks on the other.

Now he really was scared...

We were in the Foreign Office with guns, grenades and ammo ready for the go. Then this shouting starts. Our lookout says that there's hundreds marching down the road. I thought "fuck"

We sat in a room in the MOD. Harold, Roy, Myself, Joe and various police and army officers. There was a direct link between us and the combined SAS and anti terrorist squads. The chants threatened to block out the officer on the other end.

The room was whisper quiet apart from the hiss of the radio...

Walker stared manically out of the window. He saw the mob chanting and screaming. God how he hated them, commies, layabouts, thugs, hippies, weirdos. These were the people he was trying to stop. These were the people he didn't want controlling his country.

Then he saw him. A man with a "Gay Lib" banner.

BANG!...
