Howe's That

[Raffles]

Tory Grandee, Lord Geoffrey Howe, has died of a suspected heart attack.
If there's an afterlife, it'd be interesting should he and recently deceased Dennis Healey bump into one another.

Is there something in the Merseyside psyche which makes them always play the victim even 40 years on?

I can hardly remember the bloke personally. I think I got him mixed up with the Spitting Image puppet of Douglas Hurd with the wavy hairstyle.

Trust me, he had long been forgotten about, until his death and most folk around here, who were around at the time just remembered him as a cunt (one of many)for a second or two and moved on.

Where do you get the "half of Merseyside always playing the victim" from btw? I'd be interested as to how you came upon such a sweeping statement.
