RIP to Jimmy Reid the Clydeside Trade Union activists who died this week. He was an inspiring orator (something very much lacking in the last couple of decades via politics) – this speech delivered on his inauguration as rector of Glasgow University in 1972 was compared to the Gettysburg address… it has lost little of its relevance!    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/still-irresistible-a-workingclass-heros-finest-speech-2051285.html
