RIP Royal


RIP, he led a full life.

I remember him for good work in difficult circumstances in the period after the conflict in the former Yugoslavia.

His obituary is below and worth a read.

RIP
I have a friend a lot older than me who served with him in the marines who can't praise him high enough.
A decent man.

I had great respect for Paddy, unlike the bunch of cants in parliament at the moment. There are so few great examples of political leaders at the moment! Just wish Hilary Benn would step up to the plate.

Never met the guy so I can’t comment from personal experience, but reading the obituary he came across as a genuine tidy guy who fought for what he believed to be right.

Calling Tony Blair smarmy, seems like a tidy judge of character too.

His 'CV' indicates a wealth of experience that would be much more useful than today's career politicians.

When asked if he'd had an affair with his secretary, he replied, " Yes ".

No bullshite or evasiveness or lies, just a straight answer. If only all politicians were as honest.

A man deserving respect.

RIP Paddy Pantsdown

Back in my consulting days I used to go for fag breaks in the gardens near Embankment tube and would see him most days walking to or from Parliament, and was on nodding terms with him.

They don't make them like that any more.

I recommend his book"Nein, standing up to Hitler". It's about the resistance towards Hitler by his Generals and senior officers throughout the war. The spying, the agents, and the leaks from the very top of the Abwehr to the British and Russian intelligence agencies. A real eye opener.
