Inspirations:
Well there's people like Nelson Mandela, Bob Geldof, some of the philantrophists of the Industrial Reveolution like Rowntree etc who managed to couple industrialisation with a strong social conscience. There are people like Mo Mowlam, who remained true to her ethics, Germaine Greer who's a very clever lady indeed and who inspired with her BB walkout...
There's a good few inspirational peeps here too - I won't embarrass you but you should all know who you are by now.
