Peter Oborne writes: "When young Alistair Darling first flirted with politics in the Seventies he was the classic bearded Leftie of popular legend.One old comrade recalls Darling as 'pressing Trotskyite tracts on bewildered railwaymen at Waverley Station in Edinburgh'.
The future Chancellor was extremely close to an organisation called the International Marxist Group, heavily penetrated by British intelligence, one of whose primary objectives was the nationalisation of the British banking system."
Hmm.
