Dark Secrets: The Cato Street Conspiracy Exposed.
In 1820 a radical plot was hatched in the heart of London. Its aim was nothing less than the assassination of the @British Prime Minister, @Lord Liverpool, and his entire cabinet.
Now known as the Cato Street Conspiracy, the plot was driven by grievances against repressive government policies and was led by a former soldier named Arthur Thistlewood. His ambitious plan was to ambush a cabinet dinner and wipe out the top of the @British government in one fell swoop.
However, things didn't go to plan and the Cato Street Conspirators found themselves in jail, or dead. While assassination attempts on political figures are nothing new, this one stands out.

Why? Because many believe that Lord Liverpool and his cabinet orchestrated the plot themselves.
