Commenting on his meeting with Nelson Mandela this morning, Liberal Democrat Leader Ming Campbell said:
“It was an honour to meet Nelson Mandela, a leader who has spent his life tackling injustice.
“He is a giant amongst the political figures of the modern age.
“At a time when we are looking for role models, what better role model than Nelson Mandela?”
I have seen the statue of Nelson Mandela.
Did you not wonder at the fact – so obviously portraited – that he was a fisherman?
“It was this big.”
