    In 1986, Michael Foot MP was made the chair of a Labour Party nuclear disarmament committee. The Times headline ran: ‘Foot Heads Arms Body’.

    ...the man who never finished a sentence....I remember an interview that Brian Waldon did with him - he just could not stop speaking and there was no pause it was all just one long 5 minute rambling sentence - ah the good old days. The days when there were characters not sanitized on-message talking robots....
