Can’t say I disagree.

RIP

He was a very decent politician

 

[Skaville]

The kind of man we desperately need in the shambles that is the current House of Commons. RIP

 

[Lincoln Imp]

The only real time i liked the Liberal party.

I still do. He seemed to have a political integrity that few party leaders have now. John Smith perhaps, and maybe John Major, were his counterparts.

 

[The Antikythera Mechanism]

He was a statesman, something, sadly, that doesn’t exist in our current parliament. RIP Paddy

a good man.

RIP a good guy and politician. Spoke out very early on about the genocide going on in the Balkans ... if only the world’s policians had listened to this knowledgeable and compassionate man.

Didn’t realise he was SF as well.

 

[The Oldman]

Would have made a good PM. Had integrity and intelligence which is more than can be said for today's lot.

 

[Beach Hut]

Wasn't't he in the Special Boat Services ?

Except of course when he cheated on his wife

Nice time to drag that up.

 

[ManOfSussex]

He ran Bosnia once.

We're so dicked as a country without people like him.

 

[Ernest]

Nice time to drag that up.

Perhaps people shouldn't say he was different from any other politician, a sad loss but don't make him out to be a saint

'Paddy Pants Down' as Spitting Image called it.

And you've done what (comparably) for your country? Thought not.

Top bloke, sadly missed and, in the current climate, very much needed. RIP
