Jerome Bannigan (d. 1970), aka George Andrew McMahon, was an Irish "fraudster," and "fanaticist," and would-be assassin of King Edward VIII. On 16 July 1936 he pulled a gun as the king was riding through Hyde Park after leaving an army parade during the Colour ceremony. Police and bystanders acted and managed to subdue McMahon after a struggle, and an unfired revolver fell near the feet of the King's carriage as he continued safely down Constitution Hill. McMahon, denounced in 1940 as a Nazi sympathizer, claimed he had been angered by the Home Secretary's alleged failure to respond to his reports of a plot to kill the King and later claimed to have been working with MI5.
