Synopsis
The Profumo Affair remains the biggest scandal in British politics. The Minister of War was found to be having an affair with a call girl who had associations with a Russian Naval Officer at the height of the Cold War. Lord Dennings report into the scandal deals with questions of cover-up, lies told to Parliament, bribery and stories sold to the newspapers and describes with fascinated revulsion the extraordinary sexual behaviour of the great and the good of the day. "Uncovered Editions" are historic official papers which have not previously been available in a popular form. This is a facsimile reprint of a report from the archives of the Stationery Office - also known as the Denning Report.
