Presented by AUTONOMY NOW!
With Martin Lux and Alex Hodson

Join us on the 30th anniversary of the Poll Tax riot which helped drive out Margaret Thatcher from power. Find out about the crucial local level campaigning work that led up to the crunch point of the riot, and how a combination of Police provocation and government incompetence helped turn a popular mass demonstration into a full-scale battle which spilled out across the West End, leading to the downfall of one of the UK's longest-serving and most authoritarian Prime Ministers.
