My post on my Substack (it’s free), wishes Richard Kemp, legenday #LSD chemist a happy 80th birthday & reveals what happened to his 8,000 word document,, ‘Microdoctrine’. Clue: the BBC obtained it under false pretences (ripped it off) from journalist Patrick O’Brien, in another historic case of the BBC’s notorious loyalty to the ‘Establishment’ Not so much ‘catch-and-kill’ as ‘snatch-and-kill’, intended to silence a dissident.

RE: 'How Green was the #Psychedelic Revolution?'

The ending of the final episode, of the BBC Radio podcast, Acid Dream, 'The Microdoctrine', has (without explanation) been re-edited since it was originally broadcast on 22 November 2022. In this new version, the Microdoctrine "extract" from 1978 has been cut, as has the statement that it consisted of Richard Kemp’s “words, taken from his Microdoctrine written 45 years ago.” Full story at:
