Told from a gently left wing perspective, this is the story not of leaders, not of organisations, but of the ordinary man (and I accept both that no one may be called 'ordinary' and that the term 'man' very firmly includes woman).

She does not judge the miners, or the strike breakers; those who fight for equality, or the BNP members; men or women; politicians or workers. She takes the admirable view that, if you give people the facts, they can arrive at their own conclusions.
