  These are the personal and political memoirs of the Labour MP Jack Ashley. On his journey from the slums of Widnes during the Depression to Westminster Ashley was tragically struck down with total deafness at the point in his career when he had been tipped for a ministerial post. For the last 20 years he has fought imaginative and tireless battles to bring disability and the rights of the underprivileged firmly onto the parliamentary agenda.
