Though the traditional narrative of the British home front during World War Two is one of a people united in their resistance against the Nazi onslaught. The reality, however, was that there was a real and existential threat posed to the country by a small group, including a significant number of Scots, who worked proactively for Hitler’s victory and the establishment of a fascist vassal state. In his new book, Hitler's British Traitors, investigative journalist Tim Tate reveals the MI5 files on these people and how their class and sex often dictated how the state dealt with them.
