History Lesson from a Liberal Legend

submitted by Harbinger
1 decade 8 months 1 week ago

Earlier this week Tony Benn died. He has always been a sort of hero to me. A politician who held on to his beliefs and ideals and just kept struggling on to make the world a better place. This is a little ten minute history lesson in which he pretty much hits the nail on the head.

I'm looking at you, student loans... *promote.

For those who don't know this man (I didn't) he spent 50 years in and out of the British Parliament.

"Anthony Neil Wedgwood "Tony" Benn, PC (3 April 1925 – 14 March 2014), the former 2nd Viscount Stansgate, was a British Labour Party politician who was a Member of Parliament (MP) from 1950 to 2001 (with two short breaks) and a cabinet minister under Harold Wilson and James Callaghan." /wiki
