In 1985, Willie McRae, the lawyer and ex-Vice Chairman of the Scottish National Party was found on a lonely hillside near Loch Loyne in Scotland. He had survived a car crash but was later discovered to have a bullet in his brain. Was it self-inflicted as the authorities announced with considerable haste or was it state sponsored murder?
‘Firebrand’ explores all aspects of the shooting including the controversial political career of Willie McRae and poses questions seeking the possible motives which may have prompted his murder. McRae’s victories over the Atomic Energy Authority, his access to files accusing the Scottish Judiciary and the UK’s political elite, his war on drugs and his support of the Scottish National Liberation Army are all investigated.
Interviews and statements from many of those involved on that fateful day are included and photographic evidence is provided which raise considerable doubts as to the safety of the Crown’s assertions.
Ron Culley has fourteen books under his belt. Typically Ron writes on Scottish politics but he has also written on Irish politics, gun control, Big Oil, travel books and humour. He lives in Glasgow where he has a wife, four sons, four grandchildren and two dogs.
