The Walsall Bomb Plot was a frame up of anarchists by the UK Police. Recent research into police files has revealed that the bombings were instigated by Auguste Coulon, an agent provocateur of Special Branch Inspector William Melville, who would go on to become an early official of what became MI5.[1]
