In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1970 when Member of Parliament for Birmingham Sparkbrook, Roy Hattersley, embarked on a poignant visit to slum housing in Birmingham. The image captures a significant moment in history as Hattersley, a prominent Labour politician known for his dedication to social issues, confronts the harsh realities faced by those living in poverty-stricken areas. As we gaze upon this powerful snapshot from the past, it becomes evident that Hattersley's presence amidst these dilapidated houses symbolizes hope and change. His determination to witness firsthand the plight of his constituents demonstrates his commitment towards improving their living conditions and fighting against inequality.
