Death of John Smith!
So does anyone think that we would be a different nation today if this hadn't happened.
Would like to keep this thread not about Red or Blue politics more about the impact across ALL political divides.

Thanks for all this.

I started this thread because my MIL reminded me of the date. She was the cleaner at the Parliamentary Office of Monklands East and so she knew the whole Smith family.

In addition I was reading an article regarding the current staff that SKS has around him at Labour Party HQ in the run up to the next General Election (Sue Gray and others) and I was really concerned at the way that the Tony Blair organisation is heavily involved at that level and what ramifications that would have on the country if / when Labour get into power.

I maybe talking out of turn but I think many voters today are looking for real "Conviction Politics" once again.
