Quote by Stuart Hall

“The right of the labour movement, to be honest, has no ideas of any compelling quality, except the instinct for short-term political survival.

He wanted to keep on hating them, the vast monolithic structure, wherever it existed. They had caught him for giving socialized repair.”
