External Site: History of Parliament: Oral History Project[info]
The History of Parliament’s Oral History Project is the result of a collaboration with the British Library which aims to produce a sound archive of British politics since 1945. The project’s ambition is to interview as many former MPs as possible and create an archive of audio recordings of the interviews, accompanied by transcripts. The recordings can be heard in their entirety only at the British Library, but this page presents audio excerpts from the interviews, along with a transcript of the clip, biographical details and a summary of the entire interview. Amongst the former Parliamentarians represented here are Denis Healey, Geoffrey Howe, Frank Judd and David Owen.
