Audio from George Galloway’s speech this afternoon at Luther King House in Manchester.
Some elements are taken from from his confrontation with the US senate in 2005 (video is well worth watching, despite it’s length – Galloway is unshaken and resolute throughout).

MP3 audio (40kbps, 11.1MB download) / Ogg Vorbis (32kbps, 5.5MB download)
Note that quality is similar in both files, go with Ogg Vorbis if you can to save on bandwidth.

Apologies for the poor audio quality, the recording was made on my mobile phone, which saves to the AMR format. I cleaned it up (or tried to) using Audacity.

Not sure why, but this book has been on my pile of books to read for a long time. Possibly this was a mistake, because this is a truly superb novel.

Michael Owen is tasked with researching and documenting the influential Winshaw family, who have, for the last half-century or so, been furthering themselves at the expense of all others in the most unethical and selfish of ways. The work Owen is charged with researching is interwoven with events from his own more mundane life, and we begin to realise just how wide reaching the Winshaw’s influence is.

Unflinchingly socialist and politically charged on one page, flippant and funny the next, Coe relies somewhat on the reader being on his side before they begin. A people-centric view of the problems Thatcher caused us.
