Talk:Dennis Stevenson

At a glance i'd say the whole thing needs going over — I'll print it out and take it to the pub or something — even just the chronology.

I have a good big chunk on Manpower which really shows them up for what they are, the question is how long is this thing.

He was on Demos from the start and part of their initial advisory boad line-up although Tim Pendry doesn't seem to know where he came from — which is odd. Very odd.

Geraldine Bedell Independent on Sunday 24/1/93 says Stevenson on original advisory board — I don't see what your archive links really prove — Tim Pendry's lobster article also says he was orig. ad. bo. (note Pearson also funding Demos) we must use pendry's stuff

I have a good chunk on Docklands particularly on Wapping (Stevenson was the community relations PR guy for Docklands and a short time after the wapping Plant was built (designed as a fortress) and the battle ensued Stevenson joined BSkyB.

After reading it over: My opinion is that it's pretty bad as it stands — I can't say I can see all the reference material at the end understood and built into the text. Its all over the place chronologically and doesn't hit home with its facts — ie it doesn't relate them to a wider understanding. I wrote my bits when i was first trying to graps Stevenson's connections.

I think its possible to re-write in a lot more effective way. I'll print it out as it is and work on it over the weekend although I have a lot of stuff on — failing that I'll work on it next week in conjunction with the thinngs i've left hanging.

It could be good but its a mess at the moment — did you say you'd worked on it!
