Magna Carta Unlocked - Part Four

Part Four looks at John Wilkes, a comparatively little-known figure today, but in mid- to late-18th century he was at the epicentre of events which shook the British Establishment and helped prepare the ground for modern civil liberties. Wilkes was part of a successfuly campaign to compel governments to publish the full text of Parliament debates.
