Cheering Up Britannia

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

How seriously does the State consider our quality of life and happiness? And should it? Or is the real job of government to concentrate on the "big picture" ratherthan worrying if we're happy or not? In the second of two programmes chaired by Edward Stourton , a forum of invited guests meet at Alnwick Castle in Northumberland to debate with Sir Samuel Brittan and Zak Goldsmith the proposition that politicians need to put our happiness at the top of their agenda.
