In this book those who played the key roles in Labour's great election victories of 1964 and 1966 describe their techniques for winning, the way in which Labour governed dynamically on a small majority to build up support and win its biggest majority since 1945, and the key role played by Harold Wilson as an energetic, modernizing leader who brought Labour back into tune with the national mood, led it to victory - but then threw it all away.
Last Time chronicles Labour's triumphs and failures from the sixties. It shows how the great victory turned sour in the face of economic difficulties and how Wilson failed to seize the moment to ensure the economic growth on which Labour's success depended, then as now. In four years of the nineteen sixties Labour went from triumph to tragedy. This book chronicles that dramatic process, in the words of those who took part, to point out the lessons for New Labour so it can avoid the mistakes old Labour made in the sixties.
