Tony Benn - Pit Closures
Tony Benn speaking out passionately in parliament about the corruption of the Tories (surrounding the pit closures) and Margaret Thatcher's greedy and scandalous, anti-socialist, 19th century-like political philosophies which lead to the reduction of government control of the economy, by privatising socially owned businesses (selling off the family silverware), reducing welfare and reducing tax levels for the rich (but not in practice for the poor).
Clip from Benn's 'Speaking up in Parliament' video, available through amazon.co.uk and elsewhere.
