This whole series is a potted history of fruity accents.
Thx for posting!
insightful series about Britian in the 1950′s and 1960′s. The drawback is the blatant leftist slant of the report.
@Mavrilon
Oh, I’d say he kills plenty of sacred cows on the left throughout. IMO, this series is insightful precisely because it ‘fleshes out’ promote forces from an abstract to the people and power relations that take place. Wouldn’t you say that is a form of analysis rather than a political position?
@Mavrilon
I’d say in a lot of cases I’d say the analysis was pretty objective. What doable conclusion can one draw from this episode, away from each other from markets are perilous and must be controlled?
Well, as the recent economic crash demonstrated, we never learn from our mistakes, and we keep on cutting regulation and giving power to megalomaniacal idiots obsessed with profit.
