Harold Wilson was leader of the Labour Party from 1963 to 1976. He served two terms as Prime Minister, from 1964 to 1970 and from 1974 to 1979.[1] He lost the the UK 1979 General election after Clockwork Orange, an MI5 campaign to discredit him, and intervention by Brian Crozier's Shield Committee in support of Margaret Thatcher.

Bilderberg

Harold Wilson attended the Bilderberg group in 1962, before becoming party leader, as is routine for Prime Ministers of the United Kingdom.

Attempt to create a "Commonwealth Bilderberg group"

Phillip Murphy has suggested that having attended Bilderberg "in the late 1950s and early 1960s"Wilson was "sufficiently persuaded of [Bilderberg]'s value and influence in international matters to give consideration to the formation of a commonwealth Bilderberg group with Prince Phillip as its figurehead."[2][3][4] This idea, promoted by Louis Mountbatten (who attended the 1965 Bilderberg) and Prince Phillip was ultimately unsuccessful.[5]

Sudden promotion

Harold Wilson became leader of the Labour Party after the sudden death of Hugh Gaitskell in January 1963.[6] If Gaitskell's death were no accident, this could be an incidence of the Bilderberg Effect, after Wilson's visit to the 1962 Bilderberg.

Clockwork Orange

Full article: Clockwork Orange

The UK deep state used elements within MI5 and the British military to take down the Labour Government, in an operation named "Clockwork Orange".[7] This received very little exposure at the time. It was later exposed by Colin Wallace. In 2006, the BBC produced a film about it.

The Guardian summarised it as follows: "The great and the good feared that the country was out of control, and that Wilson lacked either the will or the desire to stand firm. Retired intelligence officers gathered with military brass and plotted a coup d'etat. They would seize Heathrow airport, the BBC and Buckingham Palace. Lord Mountbatten would be the strongman, acting as interim prime minister. The Queen would read a statement urging the public to support the armed forces, because the government was no longer able to keep order... Yet officially it never happened: a 1987 inquiry under Margaret Thatcher concluded the allegations were false, implying that the fading Wilson had descended into paranoia. This can't be allowed to stand. Not only does it do an injustice to Wilson, it also represents an enormous cover-up."[8]
