DescriptionAssembly for the 'Battle of St Ann's'

Tracks 1 - 17: are assemblies for the programme. The assemblies are a combination of Charles Parker dialogue including quotes from the book 'Poverty: The Forgotten Englishmen' and inserts from interviews with residents, the social studies group and the authors of the book.

The discussion covers the residents' reaction to 'authority' figures, rising prices and high rents, people not being aware that they earn low wages, home repairs, and the negative mental impact on tenants, damp and illnes, tenants battling against poor housing and street conditions, how outsiders view the area and the residents, slum landlords and deteriorating areas.
