I've met Winnie a few times, though not for a few years now.
I found her a caring person, easy to talk to, brilliant to listen to, and uncompromising in her principles.
As an MEP, she too
k particular interestst in legislating for disability rights.
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."
