Lockheed Martin X-59 Quesst - Wikipedia

Tony Benn's Five Questions presented as if they were written on a blackboard.

Ask the powerful five questions
1. What Power have you got?
2. Where did you get it from?
3. In whose interest do you exercise it?
4. To whom are you accounatable?
5. How can we get rid of you?

ONLY Democracy gives us this right.

That is why NO-ONE with power likes democracy.

And that is why EVERY generation must struggle to win it and keep it.

Including you and me here and now.

Tony Benn
