Mo Mowlam- a remarkable woman.

She was a remarkable woman and we won't forget her, even if Blair has airbrushed her and her remarkable achievements out of history.

He lacks generosity of spirit.

What Day6 said. Sums it up perfectly for me.

A strong and fair woman. Mo Molam had the common touch yet possessed a fierce intellect. Her negotiating skills in respect of the Good Friday agreement cannot be under-estimated. We need more politicians with integrity and altruism in the HOC.

Blair is a complete arse.

Rest in peace Mo Molam.

She was indeed a remarkable woman and her empathy for people shone through.

Mo Mowlam was a politican with morals and worked for the UK not herself.

If only there were more like her today in the H of Cs

I have not heard TB's speech either but I am not in the least surprised that he failed to mention this remarkable woman.

I saw the step-daughter's story and somebody shared on facebook the story of Mo tearing off her wig in meetings and I was reminded what a special person she was.

Yes, thanks trisher. I've not heard TB's speech and I'm shocked he didn't mention Mo Mowlam. A hero of a woman.

Yes, thanks for this trisher . She bought such humanity to the Good Friday Agreement.

Well done trisher for starting this thread.

I met her at a dinner in the 1990s. We had a lovely chat. Obviously well briefed, she knew about my research and later wrote to me. She was a remarkable woman and a brave one too.

I second that trisher...she did so much for the LP and this country
