View in Radio Times

by Sir Edward Boyle Member of Parliament for Birmingham (Handsworth)
The speaker reflects on the problems and reponsibilities that belong to this generation of M.P.s, and contrasts the difficult and intricate questions that face them every day with the comparatively straightforward political issues of their grand-fathers' time.
This is the fifth of a group of talks by representatives of the Queen's generation.
