For me, I have to say Silvio Berlusconi.
I know I'm going to get a lot of criticism but hey...he's a strong conservative voice in liberal Europe.
Another political figure I admire is Iain Duncan Smith. He's not a head of state but he was the former leader of Britain's Conservative Party.
I'm sure the our British and other foreign friends on the forum will just love who I admire!
You're kidding me right? Silvio Berlusconi? Do you know much about the man?
He was booted out of government back in the nineties I think it was for corruption and then when he somehow managed to weasel his way back, he reformed the law so that neither he, nor his cronies could be investigated for corruption charges. The man is as corrupt as they come.
On Iain Duncan Smith, are you serious? Interesting? He was a terrible debater and
THE most ineffective leader of the opposition in history and as such the only one not to have a waxwork in Madame Tussaudes. He was useless, we called him Iain Duncan Cough or The Quiet Man. One of the most uninspiring speakers who failed to capitalise when Labour's numbers were falling. Labour's base of support was ripe for the picking and he sat there and did nothing, managing to drop the Tories by a point while the Liberal Democrats took all the support.
