Overview

The Scottish Campaign to Resist the Atomic Menace (SCRAM) was founded in 1976. It was reported on through the Torness Alliance, its campaign to oppose the construction of a nuclear reactor in Lothian, which was spied on in the early 1980s by undercover officers HN155 ‘Phil Cooper’ and HN85 Roger Pearce (‘Roger Thorley’). 

SCRAM was mentioned in connection only with this campaign and other anti-nuclear umbrella groups noted in SDS reporting. Despite this, SCRAM appears in SDS annual reports named a central target for surveillance.
