CORRECTION: During the section comparing UK politicians' speeches in the House of Commons, excerpts of speeches from the then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and the Leader of the Opposition Michael Foot on the Falklands war were played. The programme incorrectly said that both speeches were made in the Commons on the same day - 3rd April 1982 - when Michael Foot's speech was made later in the month, on 29th April 1982. We are happy to make this clear.
