Escape to Tottenham

Today I found out an interesting fact about one of the founders of the Guinness Book of World Records. Ross McWhirter was a racist political activist who thought that there should be restrictions on the rights of Irish in England. On November 4, 1975 he offered £50,000 Pounds to anyone who would rat on the Irish Republican Army. He was shot dead  during a year long shooting campaign in London by the IRA in Nov 27th. 
Humph.
