:00:00. > :00:08.died Should politicians vote when they

:00:09. > :00:11.have business interests? Thd whole question of the Health Servhce

:00:12. > :00:17.reorganisation we've seen is one of the biggest affronts to democracy I

:00:18. > :00:21.can remember in my political career. Pitching for patient improvdment `

:00:22. > :00:26.how a TV show sparked a whole new way at the NHS. You basically creep

:00:27. > :00:29.up the small bowel and you can get good distances and see bit of the

:00:30. > :00:34.bowel that previously were inaccessible.

:00:35. > :00:39.And how the women of Folkestone started the campaign to force men to

:00:40. > :00:44.go to war. The White Feather movement went national. It really

:00:45. > :00:48.captured the imagination. Throughout the country men of military age not

:00:49. > :00:53.in uniform were being presented with these white feathers.

:00:54. > :00:59.I'm Natalie Graham, with untold stories closer to home. Frol all

:01:00. > :01:14.around the South East, this is Inside Out.

:01:15. > :01:21.Hi, I'm at Baxter's Field in Lewes, the county town and one of the seats

:01:22. > :01:24.of local government in East Sussex. Now, you may not know this, but when

:01:25. > :01:28.Westminster politicians makd new laws, they are allowed to vote even

:01:29. > :01:33.if they have a potential conflict of interest. But are local polhticians

:01:34. > :01:47.showing them how things shotld be done?

:01:48. > :01:51.Westminster politicians dechded on a new future for the National Health

:01:52. > :02:07.Service by passing the Health and Social Care Bill.

:02:08. > :02:13.The act offers new opportunhties for private firms to compete for NHS

:02:14. > :02:16.business. But many of those same politicians who voted yes to the Act

:02:17. > :02:20.had financial and business hnterests that could have benefited from the

:02:21. > :02:23.Act. The whole question of the Health Service reorgnaisation that

:02:24. > :02:36.we've seen is one of biggest affronts to democracy I can remember

:02:37. > :02:39.in my political career. Let's end private finance and privatisation

:02:40. > :02:43.with in the NHS! The Health and Social Care Act faced fiercd

:02:44. > :02:48.opposition. It prompted angry street protest and revolt. Opponents say it

:02:49. > :02:51.is privatisation by the back door. The idea that politicians m`y have

:02:52. > :02:57.had a vested interest in pushing through highly controversial

:02:58. > :03:01.legislation has angered manx people. Some critics believe some of our own

:03:02. > :03:06.MPs and peers in the South Dast had vested interests. Two of thdm with

:03:07. > :03:17.strong health interests are Baroness Cumberlege and Baroness Bottomley.

:03:18. > :03:22.My Lords, I have listened vdry carefully to the debate... Baroness

:03:23. > :03:24.Julia Cumberlege owns a company in Lewes in Sussex called Cumbdrlege

:03:25. > :03:30.Eden, formerly Cumberlege Connections. It's a company that

:03:31. > :03:34.specialises in training NHS staff. It's in a position to profit from

:03:35. > :03:38.the Health and Social Care @ct by giving advice on the political

:03:39. > :03:42.implications. The baroness was able to vote on the bill despite the fact

:03:43. > :03:48.that she stood to make monex from the changes. But Baroness Ctmberlege

:03:49. > :03:50.is not alone. Andrew Robertson is an investigative journalist who has

:03:51. > :03:56.spent months researching thdse connections. He found more than 200

:03:57. > :04:02.links. They represent every area of the health care chain. They include

:04:03. > :04:05.being chairmen of companies that are involved in private finance

:04:06. > :04:16.initiatives, partners in thd law firms that seal those deals. They

:04:17. > :04:20.are sole owners of companies. They have shares of varying levels in

:04:21. > :04:26.those companies and they ard advisors to the front line companies

:04:27. > :04:28.running the services. They `re also involved in the recruitment

:04:29. > :04:38.companies that are filling hn key individuals into the new NHS and the

:04:39. > :04:42.commissioning groups. Did most of these MPs and peers vote on the

:04:43. > :04:46.Health and Social Bill? Yes, most of them did. There were a few

:04:47. > :04:50.exceptions. Westminster polhticians are allowed to vote even if they

:04:51. > :04:54.have a financial interest in the matter before them, as long as they

:04:55. > :05:01.have declared that interest. Lord Marland is the former government

:05:02. > :05:03.trade envoy and Party Treastrer Well, we have a tradition of

:05:04. > :05:07.declaring your interests, ptblishing your interests and it's published on

:05:08. > :05:10.the House of Lords website. Every interest you have as a peer, every

:05:11. > :05:16.investment you have over ?50,00 , every directorship you are, every

:05:17. > :05:19.consultancy you have, is published. In politics, there's one set of

:05:20. > :05:22.rules for westminser politicians, but members sitting here in the

:05:23. > :05:29.Council Chamber operate unddr a much stricter code of conduct. Local

:05:30. > :05:32.councillors are banned from voting if they have a financial interest

:05:33. > :05:38.that might be thought to influence their vote and have to leavd the

:05:39. > :05:41.chamber for these votes. Sole people think it is time MPs and pedrs

:05:42. > :05:46.followed the same rules as local politicians. Councillor Gordon Cowan

:05:47. > :05:49.is the leader of the Labour Group on Kent County Council and a County

:05:50. > :05:58.Councillor for Dover District Council. To be honest, I didn't

:05:59. > :06:02.realise that a Parliament dhd have a different set of rules and that if

:06:03. > :06:05.they have a financial interdst they can still vote on that parthcular

:06:06. > :06:09.subject or item. This is absolutely totally wrong, and if you wdnt out

:06:10. > :06:14.to the public today and askdd them the question, I'm sure it would be

:06:15. > :06:17.100% it is wrong. I suppose the argument is, especially as far as

:06:18. > :06:21.the Lords go, is that they don't get paid and they have business

:06:22. > :06:25.interests anyway. You say the Lords are unpaid but they get quite a

:06:26. > :06:31.large allowance for every d`y they are in Parliament. They are getting

:06:32. > :06:34.something like ?150 for attdndance. The fact that MPs and peers with

:06:35. > :06:38.private interests in health care were able to vote on the he`lth care

:06:39. > :06:44.bill has made some local people very angry. We understand that somewhere

:06:45. > :06:47.in the region of 200 members of House of Lords and the Housd of

:06:48. > :06:50.Commons have past and present ties to private health care industries,

:06:51. > :06:53.and that surely consitutues a conflict of interest when you are

:06:54. > :06:57.passing legislation on an entity that is supposed to care for the

:06:58. > :07:03.welfare of the population of the country. If you have a financial

:07:04. > :07:07.interest in the decision at the end of that process, you should not be

:07:08. > :07:11.involved in that process. Their disgust is shared by others at

:07:12. > :07:15.national level. That's what stinks about this whole thing. That the

:07:16. > :07:18.public didn't give their permission, and then it was pushed throtgh

:07:19. > :07:23.Parliament by many people who had a vested interest. One of the biggest

:07:24. > :07:26.changes under the new act is the creation of Clinical Commissioning

:07:27. > :07:33.Groups, where doctors decidd what services to buy with the NHS budget.

:07:34. > :07:36.Some of them have had no experience of buying services before, so they

:07:37. > :07:39.have needed help. Baroness Cumberlege has been happy to provide

:07:40. > :07:44.that help through her company, Cumberlege, Eden Partners. It runs

:07:45. > :07:50.training programmes for NHS staff, including GPs managing directors and

:07:51. > :07:52.chief executives. Part of their training programme covers politics,

:07:53. > :07:59.power and persuasion, a tailored two`day course which the baroness

:08:00. > :08:02.herself sometimes oversees. Following Freedom of Inform`tion

:08:03. > :08:05.requests, Inside Out has le`rnt that Cumberlege, Eden Partners has made

:08:06. > :08:12.thousands in revenue from the new CCGS. CCGs like NHS South E`stern

:08:13. > :08:18.Hampshire and NHS Fareham and Gosport. In May this year, the

:08:19. > :08:23.baroness' company ran a one`day masterclass for these CCGs called

:08:24. > :08:28.Understanding Politics Mastdrclass. The total budget for the evdnt for

:08:29. > :08:31.the two CCGs was more than ?12, 00. Another South East peer with

:08:32. > :08:34.interests in the health indtstry is Baroness Bottomley of Nettldstone,

:08:35. > :08:39.who has an address registerdd in Surrey.

:08:40. > :08:47.Baroness Bottomley's links with the private health industry are

:08:48. > :08:51.extensive. She is chair of the board of a recruitment company called

:08:52. > :08:54.Odgers Berndstson. Several of the newly created Clinical Commhssioning

:08:55. > :09:00.Groups have already spent over ?200,000 on recruitment services by

:09:01. > :09:03.Odger and Berndtson. In addhtion many key positions in the ndw NHS

:09:04. > :09:14.regulator Monitor have been filled using the company at a cost of

:09:15. > :09:17.nearly ?200,000. We did invite Baroness Bottomley to

:09:18. > :09:22.take part in this film. She declined, and within a few linutes

:09:23. > :09:27.of phoning her office, her husband, Peter, also ran in person to say his

:09:28. > :09:31.wife would not be taking part. Not all peers are shy about discussing

:09:32. > :09:36.the issues around potential conflict of interest. I think most pdople who

:09:37. > :09:43.go into vote and debate do this with open, honest and a great de`l of

:09:44. > :09:48.integrity and with the future legislation and the British public

:09:49. > :09:52.in mind. We cannot sanitise every single thing in life or it doesn't

:09:53. > :09:57.become a proper debate. If xou exclude practitioners from the

:09:58. > :10:00.debate, it is a date without relevance. Surely there is `

:10:01. > :10:06.difference, though, between giving a wonderful contribution to the debate

:10:07. > :10:09.and voting on it? Is there not a moment where they might say,

:10:10. > :10:15.actually, should not be vothng on this? The great thing is yot

:10:16. > :10:18.persuade or you don't. And they have the opportunity to attempt to

:10:19. > :10:24.persuade a group of people to vote with them. Or not. And therd may be

:10:25. > :10:32.ten, 20 people involved in private health care at the Lords. Ott of a

:10:33. > :10:38.potentially voting number of 50 . So it is not really going to m`ke the

:10:39. > :10:41.sort of huge impact. Andrew Robertson has made complaints about

:10:42. > :10:45.several peers to the Commissioner for standards. One of them was about

:10:46. > :10:51.Baroness Cumberlege. For not caring an alliance with price have ``

:10:52. > :10:55.PricewaterhouseCoopers, who has won a contract worth more than ?1.6

:10:56. > :10:58.million. His complaint was not upheld as the Commissioner said

:10:59. > :11:02.there was no need for the B`roness to declare this alliance. Btt Andrew

:11:03. > :11:09.Robertson believes even so, the rules need changing. The Baroness

:11:10. > :11:15.owns her own company. She moved that company into an alliance to try to

:11:16. > :11:19.win contracts to develop thd new Clinical Commissioning Groups that

:11:20. > :11:24.were a product of the legislation. She did this as she was vothng and

:11:25. > :11:33.debating on the Health and Social Care Bill. Both of the Baronesses'

:11:34. > :11:37.were declared and there is no suggestion they breach the rules.

:11:38. > :11:38.Aaron is Cumberlege also declined a request for an interview. ``

:11:39. > :11:56.Baroness. She said... Have you ever known a polithcian at

:11:57. > :12:04.Westminster to step back and say, no, I won't vote on this because my

:12:05. > :12:06.financial interests are too close? I think everyday people understand

:12:07. > :12:10.their conflicts and decide whether they want to declare them in the

:12:11. > :12:13.debate or not. And when I s`y not, I mean not enter into the deb`te.

:12:14. > :12:17.There are many debates are do not get involved in because thex have of

:12:18. > :12:23.UI might be conflicted and therefore the impact of my argument is not

:12:24. > :12:30.strong enough. `` I do not get involved because I have intdrests

:12:31. > :12:33.which might be conflicted. Ht is not too close to the bone but it happens

:12:34. > :12:37.to be the way I might do thhngs But I am very happy and comfort`ble that

:12:38. > :12:43.people come to a debate and we'll make up our minds as we sit and

:12:44. > :12:51.listen to people's views and we then vote accordingly. `` we all. The

:12:52. > :12:53.Health and Social Care Act was controversial but the rules which

:12:54. > :12:56.allow Westminster politicians to decide whether or not they vote and

:12:57. > :13:00.whether they have a potenti`l conflict of interest fans the flames

:13:01. > :13:07.of that controversy. Reform is not being considered. For Rachel Royce

:13:08. > :13:18.reporting... Coming up on Inside Out... The shame

:13:19. > :13:26.of receiving the point further during the First World War. When my

:13:27. > :13:31.dad walked by, they were waving them as a sign of coward this.

:13:32. > :13:35.Well, imagine you work for ` big, bureaucratic establishment `nd

:13:36. > :13:40.suddenly have a brilliant idea. What are the chances of turning that idea

:13:41. > :13:42.to a reality? Well, at one large organisation in Canterbury, they are

:13:43. > :13:46.pretty good. I am on my way to the Kent

:13:47. > :13:49.Canterbury Hospital, where today, apart from the usual mix of

:13:50. > :13:56.patients, visitors, doctors and nurses, here is somethnig else `

:13:57. > :14:01.dragons! Inside the building, there hs a

:14:02. > :14:05.waiting room full of people. None are actually ill, but they `re

:14:06. > :14:09.feeling a bit sick with nerves. The people waiting are members of staff

:14:10. > :14:14.and they are nervous becausd they are about to perform a delicate

:14:15. > :14:19.operation. They are going to try and extract thousands of pounds from

:14:20. > :14:24.this panel of people. This is a, kind of, NHS version of

:14:25. > :14:28.the television show, Dragons' Den. It is called After Dragons' Den and

:14:29. > :14:30.the aim is to get the group of Dragons to release funding

:14:31. > :14:34.straightaway for projects which could improve patient care `nd,

:14:35. > :14:39.possibly, save money. Really nervous. I think the three of

:14:40. > :14:44.us are, but I feel so passionate and I really want to do this.

:14:45. > :14:49.There are four groups pitchhng today. The first is asking for funds

:14:50. > :14:53.to establish a video link bdtween a seminar room and a procedurd room,

:14:54. > :14:58.to improve training for endoscopy. We have 21 areas in the Trust which

:14:59. > :15:05.use flexible endoscopes. Thdy all need educating in the technhcal

:15:06. > :15:09.components and scope handling. Do you think you will be able to

:15:10. > :15:12.recruit patients who will engage with this?

:15:13. > :15:15.I made a DVD of the patient's journey through endoscopy and we are

:15:16. > :15:18.constantly seeking feedback from patients on that. It has bedn very

:15:19. > :15:21.positive. Are we still sending those people

:15:22. > :15:23.through this process or... The second group wants monids for

:15:24. > :15:27.trolleys and monitoring equhpment, so that patients can be seen

:15:28. > :15:33.quicker. The aim is that they get sedn once,

:15:34. > :15:36.by one team of people. And then in an ideal world, when there `re beds

:15:37. > :15:38.available, they can go strahght to a specialist ward, rather than going

:15:39. > :15:42.elsewhere first. The third is a doctor who w`nts the

:15:43. > :15:46.Dragons to invest in a new HT consultancy service.

:15:47. > :15:51.We need to get away from thd myriad spreadsheets that travel around in

:15:52. > :15:55.this organisation. We need really nice simple messaging. We nded to be

:15:56. > :15:59.able to turn on the phone or iPad, see a screen and be able to see

:16:00. > :16:01.immediately what A is likd in real time.

:16:02. > :16:05.And bringing up the rear, in more ways than one, is a doctor who wants

:16:06. > :16:09.new equipment to diagnose illnesses in the small bowel.

:16:10. > :16:12.What you do is you shorten, in a concertina effect, the bowel that is

:16:13. > :16:17.behind the balloons and then you begin again. You push through. In By

:16:18. > :16:20.going through this push and pull cycle, you basically keep up the

:16:21. > :16:25.small bowel and You get good distances and see bits that were

:16:26. > :16:34.previously inaccessible. Between them, they are asking for

:16:35. > :16:44.?220,000. But is this a rather quirky and unusual way of allocating

:16:45. > :16:47.taxpayers money really a good idea? Reaching out to the people who

:16:48. > :16:53.deliver the service every d`y, to ask them who would you do it? For us

:16:54. > :16:57.to then be able to maybe put something in place and support the

:16:58. > :17:04.people putting these things in place I think is a really good idda. They

:17:05. > :17:08.have ten minutes to convincd the panel. If they do so, they will be

:17:09. > :17:16.presented with the cheque in the gently. You admit spending loney

:17:17. > :17:21.CNN, do you worry that some of this could be wasted? We commit the basis

:17:22. > :17:27.that the details of the application is then work through with a funding

:17:28. > :17:33.director and then we have pdople to make sure that this is followed

:17:34. > :17:40.through. At the end, we could then said did actually deliver what we

:17:41. > :17:43.thought? The trust has been running the scheme for three years, long

:17:44. > :17:52.enough to see the FAQ 's and figures add up. We have seen about ?1

:17:53. > :18:01.million worth of projects and we have had about a 100% rate on,

:18:02. > :18:06.approaching ?2 million. It depresses the red button and records. One idea

:18:07. > :18:13.which has made the big changes digital dictation. Now, pathents

:18:14. > :18:25.notes are recorded onto a computer instead of old tape machines. This

:18:26. > :18:30.has changed the timing from four weeks ten to four days. The

:18:31. > :18:38.secretaries really liked it and the doctors really like it. Inshde the

:18:39. > :18:42.game, the ideas have to makd financial sense but also for the

:18:43. > :18:54.people on the receiving end. Every side, what difference has m`de to

:18:55. > :19:00.the patient? Endoscopy is a camera filming your insides as it passes

:19:01. > :19:08.through and recording the information for the patient. It is

:19:09. > :19:14.very small. Before this respect the patients had to travel to London to

:19:15. > :19:18.be able to be filmed. You h`ve got a light source in front and the camera

:19:19. > :19:25.in front which lasts for about 2 hours. It is long enough for it to

:19:26. > :19:32.last through the cycle of the digestive tract. It gives us

:19:33. > :19:38.something like 2000 pictures. It works for deletions which would not

:19:39. > :19:44.be inaccessible with the techniques that we used to have. I can go

:19:45. > :19:51.shopping and do all the norlal things instead of lying in bed,

:19:52. > :19:58.hooked up to a drip. Another idea is the red man, a very useful visual

:19:59. > :20:08.reminder that the patient ndeds help at meal time. I was going in there

:20:09. > :20:15.with an idea and the concept. There was no cost benefit that I could

:20:16. > :20:22.actually pitch. I ask for ?4,00 for them to be produced. I had heard

:20:23. > :20:30.that some patients do not gdt fed because of the shortage of staff.

:20:31. > :20:36.The idea is that, they will see that, on a bit of paper, yot do not

:20:37. > :20:43.see the passion behind it. @ll four ideas that we filmed all got

:20:44. > :20:47.approval. The success of thd scheme seems to have inspired other trusts

:20:48. > :20:53.around the country, with many of them know doing something shmilar.

:20:54. > :20:58.We look at anything which whll improve the quality of the service

:20:59. > :21:04.we provide and anything which then improves the quality of Oz `s an

:21:05. > :21:08.organisation. The staff working in the environment feel more motivated

:21:09. > :21:15.and feel better about the whole department and the whole process. I

:21:16. > :21:21.think it wins much more than just impose showings and pennies.

:21:22. > :21:26.Now, imagine the reaction today if women roamed the streets handing out

:21:27. > :21:29.white feathers to men who wdre not in the army ` in effect, br`nding

:21:30. > :21:33.them cowards. Well, that actually happened at the

:21:34. > :21:35.outbreak of World War One ` and it started in Folkestone, as Robin

:21:36. > :21:50.Gibson discovered. In the first weeks of World War One,

:21:51. > :21:53.groups of women began houndhng young men who had not joined up, handing

:21:54. > :22:06.them the potent symbol of a white feather, with the implication that

:22:07. > :22:21.they were cowards. You are a coward! Here is a white

:22:22. > :22:25.feather! They appeared in the first weeks of

:22:26. > :22:29.World War One. Families and friends were joining up and the first news

:22:35. > :22:37.dastardly cowards who are not joining up. Let's go!

:22:38. > :22:40.It is a piece of controvershal history from Folkestone's p`st. Our

:22:41. > :22:42.actors may look and sound qtite young...

:22:43. > :22:46.I think they might have been quite happy Like, "Oh, yeah, I will spend

:22:47. > :22:50.some time with my mates before I go off and fight for my countrx", but

:22:51. > :22:52.they did not realise what they were walking into.

:22:53. > :22:55...but some of these teenagers from two local schools would havd been

:22:56. > :22:59.eligible to go to war in 1904. If I had to go, I would be

:23:00. > :23:03.terrified, but I think I wotld probably go. I think, in a way, it

:23:04. > :23:06.would be worse to stay, bec`use of the pressure that is put on people

:23:07. > :23:09.to conform. Was it coincidence? Or was there

:23:10. > :23:11.something more to explain how white feather fever began here?

:23:12. > :23:15.Folkestone would have been `wash with military uniforms, so ` young

:23:16. > :23:18.man in civilian clothes would have stood out like a sore thumb. The

:23:19. > :23:22.fashionable Leas was the pl`ce to come looking for them.

:23:23. > :23:25.A man in Folkestone who was not in uniform would be out of place and he

:23:26. > :23:28.would really have to explain himself, once the white feather

:23:29. > :23:30.brigade took up arms. The It was inspired by Admiral Charles Penrose

:23:31. > :23:34.Fitzgerald. As a town councillor, he called on

:23:35. > :23:38.local women to pressure men to join up. It is said around 30 rallied to

:23:39. > :23:43.the idea, giving out white feathers as a symbol of cowardice. The

:23:44. > :23:47.following day, a story about this appeared in the Daily Mail `nd, very

:23:48. > :23:49.quickly, the whole project of the white feather movement went

:23:50. > :23:52.national. It really captured the imagination and, before we knew it,

:23:53. > :23:55.throughout the country, men of military age, not in uniforl, were

:23:56. > :24:04.being presented with these white feathers.

:24:05. > :24:08.Folkestone was more aware of the war than most parts of Britain, because

:24:09. > :24:11.it was flooded with troops `nd they could probably glimpse the sights

:24:12. > :24:14.and hear the sounds of war `cross the sea, but something else happened

:24:15. > :24:18.here in August 1914 that cut very deep.

:24:19. > :24:24.Stories of atrocities by thd German army as Belgium was overrun inflamed

:24:25. > :24:27.public opinion in Britain. Here in the pages of the Folkestone Herald,

:24:28. > :24:45.a report on the first refugdes arriving on ships in Folkestone

:24:46. > :24:49.Harbour. All of the spheres seem to be clarified. That is when people

:24:50. > :25:01.start volunteering in much greater numbers. And that is when the

:25:02. > :25:16.public, who had not seen to be reacting quickly enough really

:25:17. > :25:19.exploded. . Workers involved in jobs helping

:25:20. > :25:22.with the war effort found themselves targeted by the white feathdr

:25:23. > :25:25.campaign. As a Rochester postman, Albert Budd didn't have to join up

:25:26. > :25:29.But he couldn't cope with the jibes of soldiers at a local barr`cks

:25:30. > :25:33.As Dad was walking past these young lads who had all been told go and

:25:34. > :25:36.fight go and fight they saw this young 19 20`year`old postman walking

:25:37. > :25:40.past thinking, what is he got that we haven't and why hasn't hd joined

:25:41. > :25:46.up so they started waving white feathers at him as a sign of

:25:47. > :25:50.cowardice. I do not know how long he put up with it for, but it obviously

:25:51. > :26:07.was not very long, because he went off and joined up. Some went beyond

:26:08. > :26:15.taunting, such as here in London, freer conscientious objectors had to

:26:16. > :26:19.take refuge in a local church. The government had to act. The

:26:20. > :26:26.national recruitment drive preceded conscription. And silver medals were

:26:27. > :26:29.worn by war veterans and essential workers ` physical proof thdy were

:26:30. > :26:32.not cowards or shirkers. Some of the major employers,

:26:33. > :26:35.particularly in the South E`st, the dockyards in Chatham, said our men

:26:36. > :26:38.are almost feeling ashamed to walk to work in the mornings, because

:26:39. > :26:42.people are dishing them out with white feathers. We have got to have

:26:43. > :26:43.something to counteract this and they start giving them little

:26:44. > :26:48.badges. There is no record of how m`ny men

:26:49. > :26:52.were pushed to fight by the taunt of the white feather and no clte at all

:26:53. > :27:04.as to how many who did sacrhficed their lives for their patriotic

:27:05. > :27:07.gesture. . I think it is quhte important to remember the pdople who

:27:08. > :27:10.fought and also to remember those who objected. That has come back

:27:11. > :27:14.recently. They were quite brave in their own way, for going ag`inst the

:27:15. > :27:18.norm and standing up for wh`t they believed in. So, I think we owe

:27:19. > :27:20.them, as well as we owe the soldiers.

:27:21. > :27:23.It is an uncomfortable lesson about how people behave when the famous

:27:24. > :27:31.British back is against the wall. It blew up here on the cliffs of Kent

:27:32. > :27:35.100 years ago. And to hear incredible storhes about
