Thanks mate "Consider it recorded" same for me.
“I wish no harm to any human being, but I, as one man, am going to exercise my freedom of speech. No human being on the face of the earth, no government is going to take from me my right to speak, my right to protest against wrong, my right to do everything that is for the benefit of mankind. I am not here, then, as the accused; I am here as the accuser of capitalism dripping with blood from head to foot.”

John Maclean (Scottish socialist) speech from the Dock 1918.

It was a good program - very good in fact. It didn't really tell me anything I didn't already know (or should have known :roll:) about Mers-el-Kébir, but YMMV. Highly recommended. :tup:
