If I wake up screaming tonight, I'm holding you responsible.

I noted you admire the qualities in Benn I saw in both is all. I also saw the way both were viewed while in office and found the comparison interesting.

Tony Benn was great in terms of being erudite and gentlemanly and well-researched... can't say I know too many of his political stances, mind, but he was a little bit before my time (all I remember from my teen years were his anti-Iraq war sentiments, which were, obviously, sound)

From the Conservatives, I always liked Kenneth Clarke. Again, great composure, well-spoken, and not afraid to break from toeing the party line.

No joking from me here.
I wish she was running the UK.

I've always liked Nicola Sturgeon but she has just shown all through this pandemic more competence and compassion.

I don't mind too the odd drink of Irn Bru, I enjoy the Broons.
I'll pass on the haggis as I'm vegetarian.

There is such a thing as vegetarian haggis (a lot of haggis is actually grains and spices) ... I can't vouch for that being any good, though, as I've only ever eaten the real stuff with sheep parts in it.

The greatest thing ever to come out of Scotland.... the haggis supper. without a doubt. I wish our chip shops sold them.
