description: Britain--Nazi Germany's fiercest opponent and one that never fell to the enemy--turned into a home for the war's most terrible mass murderers and their collaborators. Through a picture, at once compelling and horrifying, of Clement Atlee's post war government and its immigration policy, it becomes clear that Eastern Europeans had favored status over non whites and Jewish Holocaust survivors. Despite protest from various members of Parliament, former members of the Waffen--SS and Nazi police units began new lives in England--some of whom became agents for the Eastern Bloc. Only in 1986, when the Simon Wiesenthal Center provided irrefutable evidence, was the stage set to remedy the situation.
