Victorian history


Conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg and literary critic A.N. Wilson clash over how to portray figures from the Victorian period. A.N. Wilson reviewed Rees-Mogg's book on prominent Victorians as "staggeringly silly". In the studio, they discuss whether General Napier, who led the conquest of Sindh in the 1840s, was a cruel coloniser or a forward-thinking patriot. (Image: Queen Victoria, credit: PA)
