Nelson Mandela and Political action

May Nelson Mandela rest in peace and my sincere condolences to his Family.
There is no easy way to say goodby to a truly wise Friend and Leader. May South Africans not forget him.

There are many Politically or Religiously motivate aspiring "Leaders" who still believe that Fear, Intimidation and Bullying is the way to move their Cause forward, hopefully the loss of such a Generous spirit will make those who cannot compromise "Pause and think" of what they can really do that will lead to a "Better World" for their followers.

There are Irish and Middle Eastern activists and Politicians who can learn from Nelson Mandela's legacy. I hope they do.

Politicians I believe - Michael Foot

No politicians can be trusted we are told. They are in it for themselves and the "people" don't really care.

No so I say. Yes, some are in it for the glory! but many others are truly caring people.

Michael Foot was one of the truly honest men of politics, or so he seemed to me. And he will be sadly missed.

Who in the current crop in the UK has the same depth of commitment to the welfare of the people? Cameron? Brown? Cleg? or others in their parties.

Brown has my vote!

Who is it for you........
