#OTD 1974. Harold Wilson back in Number 10 after the election.
He is asked “how bad” things are for Britain and he admits it’s the biggest economic and national challenge since the war.
He predicts two more years of hardship due to oil prices, unemployment and living costs.

A full episode of the podcast was dedicated to talking to Neil Kinnock about his approach to speechmaking, this speech, and who he thought were the greatest political orators. Listen to that episode here: podcasts.apple.com/be/podcas…
#OTD 1985. At Bournemouth, Neil Kinnock takes on Militant in his conference speech.
He credits the Labour movement with giving him “the life chance of moving out of a pest and damp-infested set of rooms into a decent home, built by a Labour council under a Labour Government”.

28 years ago today, the Good Friday Agreement was signed, one of Labour’s proudest achievements.
Working in Northern Ireland, I saw first-hand the transformation peace brought to communities.
At a time of global instability, it reminds us that peace must be built and protected.
