Film · 2026 · 66 min · Documentary

"Don't Let The Bastards Grind You Down" is a documentary film about British social policy. The focus is on the political struggle against neoliberal austerity policies, which have their origins in the hated Thatcher government. The film features the former socialist MP Dave Nellist, who is now the national chair of the Trade Unionist & Socialist Coalition and Hannah Sell, the general secretary of the Socialist Party. The film features a local election campaign in the miners' town of Nuneaton, students campaigning against an increase in tuition fees and refuse workers from Birmingham striking against massive cuts to their wages.

Directed by Christoph Farwig

Starring Dave Nellist, Eve Miller, Frankie Hammond, Hannah Ponting, Hannah Sell, Jimmy Briggs, Max McGee, Nick Hart
