How many politicians - anywhere - can be said to possess and uphold integrity?
She did and she was steadfast to her misguided principles throughout her parliamentary career.
Less than a mile from where I'm sitting now Keir Hardie set out the cornerstones of what became the Labour Party. The party of the working man, the party of social improvement and compassion, the party of advancement.
The last Labour leader who showed even a vestigal appreciation of those cornerstones was Kinnock, and he ended up more engrossed in himself than the message.
My membership card - ripped into pieces with an abusive message - went back to Millbank after Kim Howells explained on March 3rd 1997 that new labour had nothing in common with Socialism.
So yes, having been sold down the river by my own party, I'll mourn someone who had the guts to stick to her beliefs.
