The Angry Brigade decided to launch a bombing campaign with small bombs - in order to maximise media exposure to their demands while keeping collateral damage to a minimum. The campaign started in August 1970 and continued for a year until arrests took place the following summer.[2]
Targets included banks, embassies, the Miss World event in 1970( or rather a BBC Outside Broadcast vehicle earmarked for use in the BBC’s coverage) and the homes ofConservative MPs. In total, police attributed 25 bombings to the Angry Brigade. The bombings mostly caused property damage; one person was slightly injured.[2]
