Favourite politicians:-

Living British = Ken Livingstone

Dead British = Mo Mowlem

Dead Foreign = Mikel Gorbachev

In truth Mikel Gorbachev brought freedom & democracy to the USSR but got little thanks for it.

Living Foreign = Michael Bloomberg(Mayor of New York)

Totally changed things for the better with his zero tolerance policies in the city.

I know Sir Bob Geldof is not a politician, but perhaps he ought to be. One that I consider to be a very underrated hero. A modern day saint. On my list despite not being a fan of his music (sorry Bob).
