"No-one is unaffected by politics.  Speaking very broadly, it is about the way people organise their lives together in a community.  The important collective decisions which shape the very quality of life - our wealth, our health, our education, our morality - are all essentially political in their nature.  Studying and talking about politics is a necessary part of the good life which we seek.  To be denied the right to do this is one of the first symptoms of the oppression of the human spirit." - John Kingdom, 'Government and Politics in Britain'.

"The March of men towards freedom can be guided, but not halted." -Iain Macleod, Conservative Colonial Secretary 1959.
