Summary

MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Sir Oswald Mosley Speaks on Unemployment. SHOTLIST: Close shots speaking: SPEECH: Interviewer: Are you going to talk about unemployment today? Mr M Why of course, it is one problem that really matters today - we live in a period in which politicians are not very popular and believe me you have my sympathy. Politicians are regarded as people who have learned to talk but not to act and you demand action and rightly demand it in dealing with unemployment. We live in a period when Britain can only survive by vigour and by action. We have resources of intellect, of energy, of craftsmanship, of skill, second to none in the world, but those resources must be mobilised for a great effort of a united nation. To do that Government and Statesmen must take their courage in their hands.
