Writer John L Williams remembers the stifling summer that loosened societal norms and laid the foundations for modern-day Britain. "Thanks to the blistering heat, everyone looks like they're at the seaside, not next to a dual carriageway in West London. They're fighting for a principle...They've been out there since the end of May, and it doesn't look like they'll be giving in any time soon."
