Super FF, possibly moreso than PD or migrendel.
I agree that its a shame he didn't lose his seat because then he'd be the truest Freedom Fighting martyr.
Gave his life for his country. The markets would have rounded on the UK had he not. Whilst he didn't get a lot of his social welfare policy, nor did the Tories (and if you don't believe that, watch the next 5 years go by); Economic policy was a fundamental implementation of Orange Book liberalism which the Tories were more than happy to go along with as they generally lack the brains to have come up with half of it. Much lower income taxes for the lower/middle income workers, pension freedom for those with private pensions, and a better state pension. Pumped money into the schools system to help disadvantaged kids.
