I'd like to read this, as it would help me better understand how Thatcherism poisoned the culture of the UK.

Unlike the reviewer, I do think that a switch in dons' priorities from royal commissions and the BBC to spinning out companies and podcasting signifies not just a change but a decline. That "the continued investment of at least some dons in political life" is illustrated by the involvement of Cambridge authoritarian right theologian James Orr in Reform UK shows how steep this decline has been.
