The death of Lord Saye and Sele at just past a century gave the Dame pause for thought.
Lord Saye and Sele was one of the first people to enter Bergen Belsen.
He was horrified at how the hatred of one race could lead to such killing on an industrial scale.
But there is more to this man than just the words of his obituary.
Lord S &S never attended the Lords and disapproved of parliamentary privilege for hereditary peers.
Oddly, despite his sensible stance, His Lordship would have been a superb member of the Upper House...
yawn….
ReplyDeleteBored that he saw Bergen Belsen or that he saw the pointlessness of the hereditary system?
ReplyDeleteWonderful man and well loved locally
ReplyDelete18:37 what a crass comment. You have too much time on your hands
ReplyDeleteWhat shitty commentators we have on here, my good Dame.
ReplyDelete18:37 I am surprised someone so coarse and puerile with your boring 'yawn' (so recycled!) reads this wonderful blog. Go away.
ReplyDeletefuck you. bunch of two-timing hypocrites
DeleteOh dear, someone who has been firmly put in his place is upset. The language of the gutter from a guttersnipe!
