This work originally published in 2009 has been thoroughly revised and republished in 2025 to complete the Simbhoonath Capildeo Dossier. Part 2 focuses on the power relations between the politicians of Trinidad and Tobago for the period 1953 to 1961, namely Dr. Eric Williams, Bhadase Sagan Maraj, Tubal Uriah Butler and Rudranath Capildeo and the British colonial overlord. This work utilises de-classified British government files available at the National Archives of Britain, specifically de-classified files for the period generated by the colonial national security apparatus of Trinidad and Tobago. From these files the hegemonic discourse of the colonial overlord was unearthed and deconstructed revealing the British political agenda for granting independence to the colony of T&T. This British agenda was driven by its disocurse of the "Indian Threat", "The East Indian Problem" in T&T which must be defanged before independence is granted. A chapter on the British de-classified files on Dr Williams before independence in 1962 and thereafter are also included which reveals the approach of the colonial/neo-colonial overlord on Dr Williams. A second section of the work presents for comparative analysis the British colonial agenda for independence for Guyana and the servility of the British governments to the USA and its agenda to bring down the PPP hegemony over the electoral politics of Guyana by any means necessary, which they did. This work then presents a comparative analysis of the agenda of the British colonial overlord for independence for Trinidad and Tobago and Guyana where in T&T they rejected the idea of an Indian/Hindu dominated government whilst in Guyana they embraced Dr Cheddi Jagan and the PPP despite the protests of the USA.
