The Dark Reality of Socialism - Historian Giles Udy (Video)
In this 27 December 2024 video, host Winston Marshall sits down to talk with Giles Udy, Britain’s leading historian of the Soviet Gulag system. He is author of the phenomenal ‘Labour and the Gulag: Russia and the Seduction of the British Left’ and is a regular contributor to The Times, The Daily Telegraph, the Daily Mail, the i, UnHerd and the magazine Standpoint.
We discuss his new book ‘At Dawn They Came: Soviet Terror and Repression 1917 – 1953’, and his time exploring what remains of the Gulag prison system in Russia. He revealed to me the untold horror of the Gulag.
We also discuss the truth about socialism, its popularity in the West and its dangers. All this and more.
