    It's just been on the news, that giant of the 1970s Mr Benn has died.

    A true man of the people. Along with Bob Crow we've lost two great socialists in one week. <cry>

    I don't often care about people i've never met dying, but this is not cool :(

    Mick, you should venerate him rather than Thatcher.

    'Every generation must fight the same battles again and again. There&#8217;s no final victory and there&#8217;s no final defeat' - Tony Benn

    That's for any **** getting themselves in a tizzy over this ****ING independence debate.

    Will he have a funeral at St Paul's, with full ceremonial honours?

    Probably not, eh?

    Benn split the Labour Party and was partly responsible for them being in the wilderness for 18 years.

    Along with how many others?

    The LP of that era were riddled with splitters, Benn was a decent enough guy.
