Scope and content

In a boxing ring a big bruiser is sitting and looking furious; he has BMA (British Medical Association) on his singlet and a doctors' bag by his side. An anxious-looking Barbara Castle is fanning him in an attempt to calm him down with a Bank of England cheque for £42 million. It seems reasonable to assume that this was during her time as Secretary of State for Health and Social Services under Harold Wilson (March 1974 – April 1976).
