Default Tony Benn Will and testament

'Before his death in March, Tony Benn sat down with director Skip Kite to reflect on his remarkable career in politics. Once called 'The most dangerous man in Britain' by the right-wing press, Benn recalls growing up in the establishment, his conversion from centre-right politician to Labour supporter in the 1950s and his eventual decision to quit parliamentary politics and go it alone as a social campaigner. Tony Benn: Will and Testament has its world premiere at the Edinburgh film festival on 27 June and will be released in cinemas this autumn.'

Looking forward to this, the greatest leader we never had.

He was far too honourable and truthful to be a Political leader.

For that you have to be a complete idiot or a two faced genius.
