This book is a collectoon of articles and speeches on various subjects made by Tony Benn during the 1980s. The subject matter is wide ranging and while you can disagree with some of his politics and views Benn`s writing and campaigns are a reminder of a time when there were at least some princpled and intelligence people in politics.
