RIP
At least he had a proper job before politics unlike those of today, And believe he did national service unlike those of today, He was actually a MAN unlike those of today.
Packed in politics to look after his sick wife, While those of today hate the sick and disabled and old.

Utter Twats, And thats me being polite.

Spitting Images had him as the Chingford Skinhead, he absolutely loved it.
Remember going past the bombed Hotel in Brighton en route to Pompey and he quit to to care for his wife who ended up in a wheel chair from the injuries in the explosion ….and died a couple of years ago ….even though Thatcher begged him to stay, but said his wife came first.

A proper politician.

Honest, straight talking and I believe he genuinely tried to make our country a better place.

Puts the current shower to shame and no, I’m not a dyed in the wool Tory.
