HOW THE I.R.A (VERY) NEARLY K*LLED MARGRET THATCHER| Rory Carroll, author of "There Will Be Fire"
This week I spoke with Rory Carroll, author of 'Killing Thatcher"/ "There Will Be Fire" which details the IRA's plot to assassinate Margret Thatcher and her cabinet using a bomb a Brighton hotel in 1984.... and came incredibly close
Rory spoke to me about the years of planning that went into the attack, the effect and closeness of the bomb itself, how far Thatcher was from dying that night and how it effected her going forward.
We spoke about the infamous "We only need to be lucky ONCE.." statement that the IRA put out the next day and the IRA's "England Dept." which was tasked with bringing the conflict to British shores.
