My episode last week with Jeremy Gilbert got a very positive response - so I thought I’d do another episode on Labour Party history.
Chris Mullin was a key figure on the Labour left in the 1980s, but by 1994 he backed Tony Blair as Labour leader - and ended up taking a role as a junior minister in his governments.
In this episode I ask Chris about that transition, and we also discuss Chris’s prolific career as a journalist and writer…
Chris has written four novels, included “A Very British Coup. He’s also published four volumes of diaries, a memoir, and an expose of the miscarriage of judgement suffered by the Birmingham Six - who were falsely convicted of bombing by the IRA.
