Days of Hope by JIM ALLEN
A series of four dramas from the Great War to the General Strike. 1924: A miracle. Less than 20 years since its birth, the Labour Party forms a government with Ramsay MacDonald as Prime Minister. Although outnumbered in Parliament by Conservatives and Liberals, Labour is the largest party. Many feel the task of legislating socialism into existence can now begin.
