The classic series did have a few pro-lefty episodes, most of them during the Pertwee era, possibly to appeal to the counter-culture element in the viewership. They did try and work in some largely plot-irrelevent liberal moralizing into the scripts from Davison on as the quality of the show dropped.

True...but compared to the new series it was tolerable. RTD destroyed this new series in so many ways...from the catch-all, solve all use of the sonic screwdriver to all the gay references...thank god he has left the show.

Oh and Rose Tyler...worst companion ever...
