500 ish pages which
I have read over 5 years ish.
The content is
interesting in and of itself – speaking in various historical contexts
and on various issue.
However the whole is
really interesting. “The People” is complex – it feels a little
dated and New Labour – making us think of Diana “The People’s”
Princess.
Equally at this
moment in time “The People’s Vote” is a hot topic – somehow
differentiating it from when the people voted in recent General Elections or
in earlier Referendums.
The Sub-title is
“Voices that changed Britain” but it is I think only voices that
changed Britain for “good” as defined by the Editors. A future
edition is unlikely to include a speech from Nigel Farage, despite
his impact on Britain. The copy I have has a Red Flag on the cover
which probably indicates the starting point of the Editors.
