Captain Archibald Henry Maule (Jock) Ramsay was elected as a Conservative Party member of Parliament in 1931, after which he developed increasingly outspoken and strident antisemitic rhetoric. He became the head and founder of the ultra-right-wing fascist organization called the Nordic League. Clearly a second-rate parliamentarian, his most noteworthy achievement was serving as the Tory representative on the government’s Potato Marketing Board.
Ramsay appears in all three books in The Addlestone Chronicles trilogy. Due to his traitorous activities, including involvement with a suspected spy at the United States embassy, he became the only sitting Member of Parliament ever to be interned under Defence Regulation 18B. This law, passed just prior to the outbreak of WWII, allowed the British government to intern individuals suspected of being Nazi sympathizers while simultaneously suspending their rights to habeas corpus. He was arrested in May 1940 and imprisoned in Brixton Prison. This action was taken despite protests from his right-wing supporters and Conservative Party colleagues, who argued that it breached parliamentary privilege.
After his release in September 1944, Ramsay continued to support fascist causes, writing for and promoting his newly formed Right Club. In 1952, he wrote and published The Nameless War, an autobiography asserting an array of antisemitic conspiracy theories. These included the claim that the English, French, Russian, and Spanish revolutions were all part of a Jewish campaign for world domination. He also attempted to validate the debunked conspiracy theory contained in the Protocols of the Elders of Zion (mentioned in Lebensborn, Book II of the trilogy). Among other outlandish claims, he asserted that John Calvin, the 16th-century French theologian, was actually a Jew named Cohen, that Cromwell had been a paid agent of the Jews, and that the English Civil War and the execution of Charles I were orchestrated to allow Jews to return to England. Ramsay died of natural causes in 1955.
Thus, wild antisemitic conspiracy theories are not limited to U.S. House of Representatives member Marjorie Taylor Greene from Georgia, who infamously claimed that California wildfires were caused by Jewish space lasers.
