"For Publication 00.01 Monday, September 30, 1968. Harold Wilson on Vietnam".

"At the opening of the Labour Party Conference comes a blistering attack on the Prime Minister's record on Vietnam from Bertrand Russell. He publishes today his correspondence with Mr. Wilson from 1965 to 1967 about the war. In an introduction, Lord Russell characterises the Prime Minister's letters as 'bureaucratic'. His own letters become more outspoken as the correspondence develops, until in March 1967 he warns Mr. Wilson of 'the justified contempt of civilisation'...."
