In this episode of the podcast Will looks at the life of John Robert Clynes, the first Deputy Leader of the Labour Party, the first Englishman to lead Labour and one of its first Home Secretaries to answer the question - well who was he? This episode analyses his life and looks at a rare speech from the 1929 election (with thanks to Harry Taylor for providing the original recording). Warning: the quality of the speech recording has been cleaned up but is still not perfect so please be aware when listening.
