Olympia 34

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Who was to blame? What was the effect? The first major battle between Fascists and Communists to take place in Britain is remembered by those who were there, including Sir Oswald Mosley , Communist Julius Jacobs , ex-MP Lord Geoffrey-Lloyd, ex-police sergeant Albert Hunt, and writer Philip Toynbee , who air their views.
What comparisons can be made with today's violent demonstrations? Mosley's biographer ROBERT SKIDELSKY , and MARTIN WALKER , author of The National Front, add a postscript.
Narrated by Michell Raper Written and produced by HUGH PURCELL
