Latest / Rock & Roll Politics with Steve Richards
With Farage backing steel nationalisation, is public ownership back in fashion?
For decades nationalisation was the great taboo in British politics, while privatisation was deemed the great triumph of Thatcherism.

What’s happening… and why?
Rock & Roll Politics is live at Kings Place on May 8th. Tickets available here.
