Who were the British MPs sympathetic to the Soviets - the 'crypto-communists' 'left-wing gadflys', the 'neo-Stalinist left' so derided by fellow politicians, historians and the public? This book examines the careers and motives of MPs like Tom Driberg who developed ideological links with Soviet Union and whose ideas influenced Labour's left-wing.
