I can probably add a footnoted version here, there were quite a lot of references and space was short so they were chopped from the print version.

A footnoted version would make me happy. I've read this a second time--and passed it on--and it really is good.

sorry all, i just remembered this but i can't seem to find the footnoted version. i have a different draft, and a preceding section on post-war social democracy. we really should tidy up the draft stuff we have and serialise it in DA.

Hmm Iain may not be picking them up regularly atm, if you pm me details I can chase him up about it, alternatively it's up on akuk.com's online shop.
This is a really great article. I was wondering if there is source information that might be easily made available?
