Sadly about 45 years late ... utter ...

[alfaman]

Good riddance

Awful man. He learned a lot of his tricks from Ian Smith's awful regime that slaughtered so many, too.

[Cantaloupe]

The end of an era. The last of the crazy African despots.

Mugabe quickly slaughtered 10s of thousands soon after he gained power.

then drove the economy into free fall

While building himself a 100m mansion.

while people starved.

he waaaaay out did any of Smiths misdeeds while pretending to support blacks and Zimbabwe citizens

[Welshbeef]

Agreed tot in hell for what he did in the last two decades of his life.


Sadly the hope and expectation of his replacement has actually been even worse - to even suggest as R4 today did that maybe it would have been better under mugabe these last years such is the new feckwit.

Unfortunately not, most of Africa is still run by crazy despots.

Myself and my wife were talking about it this morning, my 5 y/o asked where he lived, we said Africa, he asked where he lives now and we both replied with hell

[KingNothing]

Has Corbyn praised his legacy yet?

[Penelope Stopit]

I hope there is a hell if only for him and a few of his kind

[anonymous-user]

Why do the good die so young

[Mikebentley]

How are they going to link this to global warming or Brexit?

I was going to post just that...

[Captain Raymond Holt]

That’s a shame.

Also a shame BBC News are calling him a ‘political strongman’.
