R.I.P.

Tony Benn - a politician whom I admired and respected rather than felt comfortable with.  What I mainly remember about him was that he reinvented himself at various points in his life. Before he adopted the "man of the people" name of Tony Benn he was Anthony Wedgwood Benn, and prior to that he was Viscount Stansgate, and had to renounce his title in order to stand for Parliament.  A man of many parts you might say.
