Its by a strange coincidence, that this week the Left-wing lost another of its 'icons,' shortly after the unexpected death of Bob Crow the trades union leader, when today Tony Benn died.
He was a politician who while feted over by many socialists and others on the Left, was equally despised and detested by many others, both in his own party (mainly for giving far left infiltrators free rein when he was on the party executive), and those not in his party, including me.
