I once saw him walking through the town of Lampeter, prior to Blair getting elected. Even though he was quite elderly he still had a certain presence (which by the very fact I mention it means it had some kind of impact), and a obvious ability to communicate with the ordinary member of the public from what I observed. Maybe I'm getting old and nostalgic but they don't make politicians like him anymore.
