To Bristol for a recording of a programme for the younger generation (15–25-year-olds). What emerged was: Great ignorance about Parliament and its work. Cynicism about politicians and their sincerity. Great gap between politicians and young people. No inspiration of young people by politicians. Healthy disregard of politicians’ conceit. Dislike of party or intra-party squabbles except as entertainment.
The Benn Diaries, 1940-1990
