I still remember the "Soft Left" (as they self identified) physically blocking Sir Keith Joseph from speaking at the Manchester University Students Union in the early 1970s. In the same year the Students' Union was pleased to receive a delegation of students from the Soviet Union. In answer to my question these students told us at a public meeting that Alexander Solzhenitsyn was not published in the USSR because there was a shortage of wood pulp and that anyway surely even we in the decadent West would not permit the publication of lies about the heroic achievements of our parents and grandparents in the Great Patriotic War. When people are talking absolute guff they need to be heard so that their arguments can be debated publically. Who knows you might actually learn something. The Soviet students certainly looked very baffled when we all laughed at them. I do not think that we brought down the Soviet Union but we certainly planted the seeds of doubt ..... |
