winterbadgerBBC obituary
I never met him, but I've heard him speak a lot, and I've seen him move across the world stage, shaping the modern day and the future as he did so. He wasn't everyone's favourite person, but he was remarkably accomplished, a powerful man (physically and emotionally) with a first-class mind. I think our nation will be the poorer fr his loss.
