I confess that my knowledge of Derek Hatton was restricted to what
was in the media - print, sound and vision. But he seemed too
extreme back then for a lad from the valleys: one Neil Kinnock.
The Liverpool lad didn't do himself too many favours perhaps by
looking somewhat worryingly like one of those well-heeled
personable villains who seemed to be much in evidence.
Anyway, fast-forward many years and he was back: then gone again! Life's a funny old game. Ditto politics.

This kind of tirade poetry always has a strong impact on the reader. It is convincing in its intensity. It is well written and well constructed. All the best for Derek. I enjoyed this poem

Thank you
Keith
