THE TROJAN HEARSE.
by J. Brian Heywood
Category: Mass media and propaganda

An enthralling work of fiction... or is it? This is a book that raises a multitude of awkward questions -- and provides some uncomfortably plausible answers. In 1943, a very gifted man with a deep hatred of everything British comes to an important decision. 'If conventional armed forces cannot conquer this blot on the face of Europe then we must learn from the ancient Greek legend of the Trojan horse and destroy it from within its own borders.' Even as World War II was ending this man and his disciples were infiltrating Britain and, with extraordinary ability and vision, began to change its economy and culture. Their skill in the now commonly used misinformation techniques can be taken from the fact that their ability to manipulate the media was unsurpassed and yet the media owners and operators were only vaguely aware of their existence. This is an incredible story of hatred and love of Britain as a nation state. It is the story of a foot soldier in a new type of war - a war waged in secret, over many years, and with incalculable effect. This young man is one of many trained since his pre-teen years to damage the British economy and way of life through the use of misinformation techniques. As he struggles to fulfil the destiny that others have intended for him, he begins to question the certainties he has been given and, finally, to come to a momentous conclusion. His true destiny lies elsewhere. In recent times whenever British people of mature years get together in groups the conversation invariably turns at some stage to the depressing changes that have taken place in the country since World War II. In particular, they ask each other why British governments never follow the wishes of the majority on key issues like law and order, our relationship with Europe and preventing dangerous terrorists from setting up their operations in Britain. The typical reaction of those who have read this is -- 'If there is a better explanation for the current situation in Britain, then I have not yet heard of it!'
