Baron Aldington

Baron Aldington, of Bispham in the County Borough of Blackpool, is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom.

It was created on 29 January 1962 for the Conservative politician and businessman, Sir Toby Low.

[citation needed] On his death in 2000 the life peerage became extinct while he was succeeded in the hereditary barony by his son Charles, the second and (As of 2021[update]) present holder of the title.

[citation needed] Lord Aldington was controversially accused of sending 70,000 cossacks and their families who had surrendered to the British forces in Austria after the Second World War over the border to the Soviets.

This highly secret act contravened the Geneva Convention as they were not citizens of the USSR, and it was obvious that they would be massacred or sent to GULAGs.
