just to correct the original posters take on the storyline. It was not the government who plotted the coup
its was an external commitee comprising
of powerful people in Media, Intelligence (MI6 evil, M15 saved the day), Business (the energy baron) and a highly trusted government advisor to the PM
(trade secretary). They even tried to kill and silence those within government (including the home secretary), who discovered the plot and who were
against it.
However yes, its is believed that the plotters staged terror attacks, to whip up panic, in order to force through 'safeguards of democracy' that was
infact a trojan horse, that gave executive draft authority to the Corportate energy giant, who was financed by the Russian mafia, and was involved in
various dodgy deals.
By persuading the PM to put the bill through parliament, a bill worded cleaverly enough to pass through the parliament and lords. It would form an
unelectable dictaroship that would have come to power with bloody on it hands.
It was a damn good episode. And then the next day, we get a coup in Thailand, which is strange. Although spooks predicted an event before hand, but I
can't remember the exacts! The people that make the show have ex security services background, and theres speculation that they are dropping hints,
but I doubt it, its all in the name of entertainment.
