11. The Legacy of Hugh Gaitskell and John Smith - with Dr Martin Farr
Update: 2023-08-27
Description
Both Smith and Gaitskell died suddenly and never gained political office. What do they tell us about how the Labour party remembers its lost leaders? What might have happened if they had both lived? And finally, where are they best placed on the spectrum of political opinion in the Labour Party?
In this episode I'm joined by Dr Martin Farr, Senior Lecturer in Contemporary British History at Newcastle University, to take on all these questions and many more.
We hope you enjoy the podcast.
