Taking Liberties

Directed by Chris Atkins

Irreverent but revelatory, outrageous but true, taking liberties reveals how New Labour has, over the last ten years, stolen the rights and freedoms of the British people amidst a climate of fear created by the media and the government itself. Featuring real stories of liberty loss with never-seen-before footage, cheeky stunts and comment from Mark Thomas, leading politicians, celebrities, human rights organisations, academics and lawyers, the film is narrated by Neil Morrissey and Ashley Jenson and has a great soundtrack with tracks by Oasis, Radiohead, The Stranglers and Franz Ferdinand.
