“This is an excellent podcast for anyone who wants to examine what happened around the 1984 election and understand the 4th Labour government.

“We were living in New Plymouth with two small children, at the heart of Think Big and my husband’s career impacted by the restructuring of the electricity sector. I remember thinking then and sense that the social contract we had grown up with had irrevocably changed. This is bringing that all back.”
