Mugabe!

Mugabe subverted democracy from the outset. It was known that the election was not fair or democratic but the British Government would not say so. So we allow people to subvert democracy at our peril. There are people in Britain doing exactly the same thing, they might not be like Mugabe but once you allow democracy to be subverted you set a precedent for evil people to use the same mechanisms for their own ends. Democracy is quite a frail plant and people inside and outside parliament are trampling all over it.

Totally agree. Parliament has seized control to prevent the democratic referendum result from being implemented. Not really very much different from other totalitarians like Mugabe and the Nazis.

The BBC described Mugabe as a "Strongman". Really... The man was a monster and the media should admit it.

You forgot some of the larger totalitarians Trotsky, Stalin, and Mao Tse Tung but the left wing press has put up such a smoke screen on these that we forget that in many ways they were worse than the National Socialist party in Germany

Stalin is credited with the deaths of near 40 million of his own people. Mugabe was small fry by comparison but that's no consolation to those of the wrong tribe or the wrong ethnicity who suffered and died on his orders. At least Stalin could claim to be carrying out Lenin's stated aims and philosophy whereas Mugabe just implemented a mindless, hate filled ideology with no overall plans or long term objectives.

An evil person who killed oponents or anyone who spoke out against him, he took his country from a prosperous nation capable of feeding it's population to a ravaged destitute ruin, all the while raping it for as much money and goods as he could amass 

Lets hope that there is such a thing as hell and he is now down there paying for his despicable actions for eternity.

Having lived and worked in several African countries I predict a bloodbath - particularly on land grab.

Where was plan B post Gaddafi and post Saddam? I am not condoning many of their actions and neither was terribly PC but better than what has followed in both cases?

Watch this space...?
