The book examines anti-socialism as a major force in early twentieth-century Britain, showing how it shaped party politics, religion, civil society and popular culture far beyond the Conservative Party
Nice to see that my my forthcoming book, Enemies of the Red Flag: Anti-Socialism in Britain, 1900-40 is now on the Manchester University Press website. Out in December of this year manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526159465/

P3s not being workloaded as high rather
Loved being told last year that p1's didnt have as high a workload as p3's. Real morale boosting stuff
