Your Britain - Fight for it now

1940's wartime poster outlining the brave new world of new towns and high rises of the modernist's dream.

Churchill hated this poster as he saw it as 'socialist propaganda'.

" the visions of model towns for workers entertained by philanthropic entrepreneurs had inadvertenly changed into the practice of accommodating them in barracks...." - from 'Austerlitz' by WG Sebald

Taken in the Imperial War Museum on the day parts of London were being burnt by rioters
