TIGHTCHOKE Posted November 21, 2024 Report Share Posted November 21, 2024 A political juggernaut in one sense, not really very good at any of it apart from taking from the pot. Always to remembered as "TWO JAGS". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted November 21, 2024 Report Share Posted November 21, 2024 He succeeded to gaining one of the top jobs, without the ability to make anything work. Known for punching an idiot, adultery and slaughtering the English language. That said, a far more colourful character than any of the current bland bunch.

12gauge82 Posted November 21, 2024 Report Share Posted November 21, 2024 I might not of agreed with some of his policys but he was a proper normal bloke who stood up for what he believed in. He had my respect for that. Unlike many of the current crop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arley Posted November 21, 2024 Report Share Posted November 21, 2024 Met him while working in security, he seemed a nice bloke, rembered my name and also showed interest in my family Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aled Posted November 22, 2024 Report Share Posted November 22, 2024 As others have said a spade a spade type of bloke, and a far more colourful politician than we have these days. He did a TV programme where he mixed with different social classes must say he looked far more comfortable and interacted better with Teenagers from a council estate than he did with the landowners from the country estate! I wonder how many other politicians of any political colour could say that? RIP and condolences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
