About Richard Crossman
Richard Howard Stafford Crossman (15 December 1907 – 5 April 1974), was a British Labour Party politician. A university classics lecturer by profession, he was elected a Member of Parliament in 1945 and became a Bevanite on the left of the party, and a long-serving member of Labour's National Executive Committee (NEC) from 1952. He was a Cabinet minister in Harold Wilson's governments of 1964–1970, first for Housing, then as Leader of the House of Commons, and then for Social Services. In the early 1970s he was editor of the New Statesman. Crossman was a significant figure among the party's advocates of Zionism. Crossman is remembered for his highly revealing three-volume Diaries of a Cabinet Minister, published posthumously.

Additional quotes by Richard Crossman
Your proposals are in fact far more revolutionary in their effects than an electoral promise to nationalise ICI and most of engineering. If I was perverse, I would say that they are diabolically and cunningly left-wing and Nye [Bevan] should have been clever enough to think them up. But you put them forward as ways of ensuring a calm evolution towards higher living standards and more personal freedom.
