ABSTRACT
Trevor receives a call from Jeffrey Hamm, and he assumes he has got a job at 302. But Hamm tells him that Mosley cannot make the meeting this year because of pressing work at a place called The Lido in Venice; he will be the opening speaker at the annual meeting in Trafalgar Square and that Oswald Mosley wants to meet him later in the year. Feeling as if he’d won the lottery, he tells his mother who says that he must speak as if it is the last thing he will ever do and that she could burst with pride. Trevor retreats from schoolwork and prepares his ten-minute oration and takes as his theme opposition to John Osborne’s assertion in Look Back in Anger that there are no great causes left. After the speech, he meets Mosley who says he would like the youth movement to be known as Mosley Youth but that only young people should run it - Mosley is anxious that there are no more Alf Flockharts around after he’d been sentenced to another spell in prison for sodomising an underage boy at the basement in 302.
