I remember the Wilson years well - and I do happen to think that his government was the last time democracy was remotely representative in the UK. Once he was toppled things changed and we became a meek and compliant US corporate-military outpost.
Wilson was overthrown by a CIA directed coup that led to his sudden resignation - otherwise a puppet government led by Lord Louis Mountbatten was planned to take power, as I recall.
There was an excellent tv drama series called A Very British Coup broadcast by Channel 4 in the 1980's on this.
There was also a very good docudrama on TV about this back in 2006 called The Plot Against Harold Wilson by the BBC (that will never happen again now the Beeb is so neutered).
Btw, in the RT report there is some very strange capitalisation going on? Can't really complain as this is something I do too, but this is exceptional - even by my standards...

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
