Farewell, Michael Foot

[kairon13]

One of the 'old guard' of the Labour party, before they started getting wishy-washy and middle class.  I liked and respected the man, and am sorry to hear of his death, though he had, as they say, a 'good innings' - 96 isn't a bad age.

Not bad at all, actually. Bet he was as sharp as ever for as long as possible too. One of the last British politicians one could respect RIP
