Tony Benn

[Finisterre]

A life well lived.


I feel we are entering a limbo, a world without principle and hope, his loss is more than one death, he embodied an era of optimism. If I stay half as true to myself as we spiral down the pan of naked self interest I shall be happy.

I will be raising a glass to him later.

Cheers!

I have alot of respect for Tony Benn, a great writer and speaker and always stood up for what he believed in and reached out to the greater public, more than can be said for alot of todays hollow politcians.

Well said Fin, I agree with you. He was a controversial man to some but like you say, a life well lived. RIP.
