When Militant ruled Liverpool in The Brink podcast

The Liverpool Echo podcast about Militant in the 1980s - The Brink - has now moved on to when Labour took control of the council.

They were led by a seemingly mismatched trio of a teacher, a boxer and a monk - but who were they, and were they part of Militant or something else entirely?

Julia Rampen's examination of the political landscape in our city in the 1980s continues with more in-depth interviews and analysis of what happened more than three decades ago.

You can download The Brink wherever you listen to your podcasts but for exclusive, interactive, immersive content download the Entale app for iOS and Android.
