The Archive Hour: Not a Penny off the Pay, Nota Second on the Day

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Tony Benn commemorates the 75th anniversary of the 1926 General Strike - a dispute which divided the country along class lines. While miners said that they would rather starve than concede, for some it was just a kind of game, with volunteers fulfilling boyhood dreams by driving trams, buses and trains. As well as being a pivotal moment for the development of British industrial relations, it was also important for the future Of the BBC. Producer Andrea Kidd
