On 3 May 1967, ITN's John Whale reported from the US state of California on the clash of ideologies unfolding between the left-wing students of Berkeley University and new right-wing Governor Ronald Reagan. Governing from the state capital of Sacramento, Reagan had demanded the university implement budget cuts and raise tution fees in an attempt to quell the student unrest that was rife of the University of California campus. Speaking to students at the renowned institution, Whale got a sense of the range of issues concerning students, chief among them the ongoing war in Vietnam. Interviewing Governor Reagan, meanwhile, offered Whale an opportunity to judge the seriousness of the actor-turned-politican. Had he underestimated the task of high level administration? And did he have ambitions for more senior political office?

Ah more pinko tripe. California was more prosperous than all of Britain under Reagan, and California companies were buying up British aggregate corporate entities and making them profitable. He actually won this battle and the Americans rewarded him with taking his view national. ITN seems to have a particular slant in this report.

California is now the 5th largest economy in the world (under a succession of democrat governors)

@@LeighRichards27What are you talking about? Under Democratic leadership, CA has become one of the worst economies in the country. They have the highest unemployment rate in the country, highest gas prices, highest taxes, highest homeless population. Thanks to their "green energy" policy, they have the highest utility rates in the nation (heck, they just added surcharges on utility bills... forcing the middle class to pay more, even if they're not using more). Now idiot Newsom has raised the minimum wage to $20 per hour for fast food workers (another job killing policy from Newsom). Overtaxing, overspending and overregulating are the key reasons over 1.2 million people have recently left the State.... more than 35% than what NY lost! I heard CA summed up perfectly the other day: The Golden State is killing the goose that laid its golden eggs!
