AT THE launch of this timely graphic “history of Britain shaped by the people” in the parliamentary annexe Portcullis House, Jeremy Corbyn made the point — and he should know— that change has never originated from within the walls of the Palace of Westminster.
It has always come, he said, as a result of struggles by ordinary people outside Parliament across the length and breadth of the country and, in his foreword to the book, Corbyn says he believes it will stimulate debate and learning from the struggles it depicts which, in turn, will empower as much as they’ll inform.
