Lord George Foulkes - WHO??????

[MrThorpeHazell]

The BBC has a link to a 6 minute vid of Lord George Foulkes complaining about a media circus over the Labour leadership.

Who on earth is he????

Just Googled him.
No wiser as to why his opinions matter.

I would have thought he would be too immersed in Hearts title bid and the nail biting important match coming up against Celtic this weekend to be
bothered commenting on politics atm.

It's his involvement with the football club that sticks in my memory about him rather than his past political career .
