"No deal is better than a bad deal" :sherlock:
I never bought Tony Benn because he didn't pass my Bilderberg smell test. As far as I could determine, and I searched long and hard, he never shone a light upon it in spite of having plenty of Bilderbergers as colleagues and fighting a deputy leadership campaign against one of its co-founder's and multi-attendee in Denis Healey. He did occasionally make vague references to the money power of the usurious bankers but never anything explicit Joe Soap would understand. Controlled opposition.
