TYpical Salmon, tabloid sound bite politics, all talk and no substance, his own ahem "speech" on wednesday made him sound what he is....a jumped up toon cooncilor way out his depth. In any case Benn jnr is his own man and in his own words "was not and is not a Bennite" in point of fact he wholly disasgreed with old Tony on most issues I would imagine that Tony Benn, whilst not in agreement, would have been very proud of the speech which echoed the great anti fascict speeches of the past. Given that he lost a brother fighting fascism in WW2, who knows what side he would have come down on ?? Of course theres politics at play here, Salmon acting as a divider, ie Labour divided over Syria so Salmon jumping in to enflame the situation for his and the lost indy causes bebefits, anything to create division and grievances thats what indy 2 merchants are at wesmtinster for. ACtually Benn was a committed devolutionist but anti independance for Scotland
