The British government used the general public as unwitting guinea pigs for biological and chemical warfare trials during the Cold War.

A new research by the University of Kent has shown that hundreds of thousands of ordinary Britons were subjected to ‘mock’ biological and chemical warfare attacks launched from aircraft, ships and road, on a much greater scale than previously thought. It's been revealed that British military aircraft dropped thousands of kilos of a toxic chemical on civilian populations in several locations. Chemical tests were carried out in the London Underground system in 1964. Over 14,000 unsuspecting soldiers were also subjected to similar tests. Experiments considered to be too dangerous to be done on the British soil, were carried out in colonies like Bahamas and Nigeria.
