Decided to begin watching Adam Curtis’s #Shifty documentary series on #BBC iPlayer tonight. It was highlighted as one of the best documentaries of 2025.

It’s made up of archive footage from #Thatcher coming to power and the immediate time afterwards.

As someone born in the Winter of Discontent I wanted to understand the time when I was alive before I could remember.

I now know my childhood suspicion and dislike of Thatcher was rooted in her economic incompetence and hatred of working class.
