Making the Weather is the story of six post-war politicians, all of whom exerted an outsized influence on the political life of the UK; an influence greater than that of most prime ministers. Vernon Bogdanor?s cast includes three from the political Left ? Aneurin ?Nye? Bevan, Roy Jenkins, and Tony Benn ? and three from the political Right ? Enoch Powell, Keith Joseph, and Nigel Farage.
