In these days of a Parliament full of cynical opportunists it is sad to see a true Parliamentarian, fine debater and man with a genuine belief in democracy pass away. No doubt, as with Bob Crow's passing, his foes will now be full of a praise for him, whilst continuing to undermine the justice, equality and democracy he stood for. R.I.P.

2nd verse same as the 1st...

Just remembered that Stuart Hall died last month as well. 3 giants of The Left all gone within weeks of each other. Sad stuff.

He was a truly wonderful and inspirational man, largely responsible for my interest in politics.

I was weak at the knees when I finally met him a few years ago; a few seconds of conversation later and the nerves were replaced with passion and optimism. He was that kind of person.

In tribute, his “Commonwealth of Britain Bill” should get a primetime public broadcast.

I loved Tony, everything about him - and I will always be grateful for his true concern for the rights of women. He was kind, honest and driven - my favourite qualities in a person - oh and I loved his voice and the way he smoked a pipe I'll miss you Tony. Why are the good people dying?

Very sad news.

I've been fascinated by the coverage of his life as I knew a fair amount about him from the 80s onwards, but was more sketchy on his past.

God rest his gentle soul.

I had the privilege of attending a talk he gave and he spoke with a few of us afterwards. Unlike many middle class socialists who tend to be a tad wary and uncomfortable around those who aren't like them - he wasn't.
