- Synopsis:
Tony Benn is, without a doubt, one of Britain's most experienced and distinguished elder statesmen. Through a turbulent career as an MP and Minister spanning many decades, he has gained a reputation for speaking his mind and voting with his conscience which has also made him one of the most controversial figures in politics. Now, unconstrained by the party whip and live in front of an audience, Tony Benn offers a fascinating insight into national and international politics and the serious issues facing us all today. He is at last, as he himself says, 'unmuzzled'. Erudite, witty and passionate, his thoughts on everything from fox hunting to nuclear weapons, public sector pay to the future of the EU are as insightful as they are provocative. He also shares the memories of a life in politics, from campaigning for Labour as a ten year old boy to dancing with the Queen. Whether reminiscing on his own personal experiences or fielding questions from the audience, his lifelong passion for - and commitment to - peace and social justice shines through every word. - Actors:
