I should really save some of this for the archive but I just can’t. It’s too good. In this entry and the subsequent two you’ll hear a sequence of three factual programmes, all from one evening on Radio 4 (last night, in fact), that I guarantee will leave you speechless. A classier, more interesting and provocative factual line-up you’ll not find anywhere in the English speaking world. So, to start with, here’s Will Hutton’s revisionist view of nationalisation in post-war Europe, complete with a cast of contributors you’d normally only find in one place at, say, Davos. Fascinating (MP3).
