Anyone watching? (get the iPlayer going if not!)
What an eye opener.
Forgot how much I hated Thatcher for a while there. Refreshed that!
It’s shocking stuff. Nothing much has changed in the Tory party.
Cheers! I’ll get that on iplayer now. I’m sure I’ll also be quickly transported back to the state of almost permanent rage I felt at the time
Christ, I despise these ****s!!!
Her government set in play what we are now enjoying today 🙁
3 parter continues tomorrow. Couldn't cope with watching it all tonight. 🙁
There’s an awful lot of similarities between Thatcher using the NF as extremely useful but not directly connected outriders and Johnson’s similar use of his fellow travellers like Arron Banks/Farage and co in the Brexit campaign

This is true in so many ways :o)
essential, relevant TV. i was struck at how similar the content was to the Small Axe Lovers rock episode (obviously not a coincidence from Steve McQueen)

absolutely, the rise of UKIP and that Tommy Robinson group have a lot of parallels with the rise of NF.
Well worth checking out Small Axe too. Still on iPlayer
Added to the watch list. Big Narstie did a really good six part podcast about the Brixton Uprising which I reckon might make a good companion piece.
+1 for the Big Narstie podcast, that was equally brilliant.

Yep, I'd bet "Red, White & Blue" was based on the guy they were interviewing too.
Watching episode 2 now.
It’s a hard, angry watch. Shameful.
