ChrisMayLA6, RIP David Marquand
Somehow I missed that David Marquand passed away a couple of weeks ago.
When I was a (mature) post-graduate student of politics, having recently been working for Charter 88, he was the towering figure of centre-left (centrist) academic political commentary/analysis.
Now perhaps somewhat forgotten (or under-recognised), at the time he was a major figure whose writing was fluid & well-argued & a major influence on many.
