2 unusual facts about Mary Goldring


Mary Goldring

Mary Goldring became particularly noted in the late 1960s as the Economists aviation correspondent, for her sustained and trenchant critique of the development programme for the Anglo-French Concorde supersonic aircraft, on the basis of noise, pollution and above all what she predicted would be disastrous commercial economics.

Goldring then moved to the BBC, where she established a new current affairs programme for Radio 4 which became Analysis, see below, and meantime also wrote a weekly column for the Investors Chronicle, edited at the time by Andreas Whittam Smith.
