Secret documents declassified by MI5 reveal in detail how in 1953

the UK under prime minister Winston Churchill overthrew the elected government

of British Guiana – now Guyana – because he feared its left-wing leader

and his American wife would lead the British colony :

into the arms of the Soviet Union.

"We ought surely [size=11pt]to get American support[/size] in doing all that we can to break the

communist teeth in British Guiana"

In the end, Britain acted alone, mounting a military operation code named Operation Windsor.

Churchill dispatched a warship, HMS Superb, and brought hundreds of troops by air

and sea to secure key sites.

On 9 October, Britain suspended British Guiana's constitution :

fired its legislators and arrested the Jagans !!

"I might add in parenthesis that catering arrangements for the airborne troops during

their halt in Trinidad were carried out by Mrs Beadon, wife of the commissioner of police,

Mrs Rahr, my wife and Joyce Huggins …and I understand that no less than

600 large sandwiches were cut by these Trickie ladies,"  Tongue

sell out to the white man !

well who are these people yuh talking about:  Beadon..the wife of the police commissioner who had to be a white man from england in 1953.

you talking about rich white Tittys...people with the barest of connections and allegiance to Trinidad and the west indies back then.  they clearly were using the money/resources of Trinidad to pay for the British troops that attacked Guyana.

back then Britain was broke and had no food yet they were in adventures of invasion. 

in the west indies in those days people had no food.  food was rationed. to get rice and flour and oil you had to have a card that the shopkeeper marked so you could not get more than allowed by law.

and yet they found food to feed the british soldiers...thickly cut, manful sandwiches.

as usual you don't know what yuh talking about ketchim.  the people who ran Trinidad then were not the people who run Trinidad today.  Trinidad was run by the British government by  governor/colonial administration, in council of reps elected by very limited franchise on that day.

you are mad.  you give Tittys trouble today who are not to be blamed for the sin you cite..who did not commit that sin.  you have to give or  take dat trouble to england, london, and lay it at the door of the british people an' parliament

but dat is simple matters dat school chirren wud scorn as simplicity..simply too silly for their scan and skills. 

and you know dat.  so wats goin' orn den ::confused::

wats goin' orn is dat you jess plainly hate Tittys and lookin' excuse fuh it. 

but you cyar geh'way wit' dat. doh try dat! excuse and cover wun wuk 

I still lookin' fuh yuh rarse in sando, pos, curepe junction, tacarigua and toco, rio claro and cushe,  manzinilla and mayaro, beocal, preysal, gasparillo and gyaregaryaree.... 

I have this big tickle waitin' fuh yuh ribs dat wont go away.
