"Here is a man who has never read anything apart from a legal textbook, and an Arsenal Programme"
This may start a bit slowly, but David Starkey makes an interesting and perceptive analysis of our current state/State, and clearly puts across the value of our (now neglected) historical heritage - we don't know what we have until it's been lost.

He gives us much to think about, and in the process, helps us realise that what we as a society now lack is the influential wisdom of experienced and knowledgeable elders - we no longer value the depth of understanding that such aldermen (using the word in its historical sense) should bring to our new and upcoming generations.
Can anybody seriously imagine that the absurd UN Climate Change Agendas-21/25/50 would ever have survived contact with such aldermen?
Could our electoral systems ever be capable to facilitate their reintroduction?
