I love Tony Benn so much. He is an inspiration to all of us with a socially aware mind. Such wisdom and experience. His name willl be remembered far after the names of all the boring 'yes men' MPs who suck right up to the leadership/ party fundraisers will be long forgotten in the graveyard of politics

"Now, increasingly, people are being managed not represented. If we don't provide a democratic opportunity, one of three things will happen, either people will become cynical, and cynicism will destroy politic and open the way to dictatorship; or they will just abstain, which will destroy the legitimacy of government; or they will turn violent. The history of the world is history of violent, in most case, the only way to resolve it was to provide democratic right. "
I have spoken to Tony and I find him a man of great integrity and sense. I wish we had more politicians like him but we don't. So as he says, it's up to us.
