[[ == THANK YOU SO MUCH ==]]

Hi Virginie,

Going back seven years, Paul Foot was still alive. Last year, he died. So it's unlikely that Paul Foot can contact your former boy-friend Shug McCormack. Nice idea, though!Phase4 19:58, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Missing Publication?

There's no mention here of the pamphlet 'Lockerbie: The Flight From Justice'. It was published by Private Eye in 2001 (I think), but my understanding is that Foot was the sole author. Unfortunately my copy is lost forever, so I can't provide many details myself. I wonder if it's not mentioned here specifically because it is a pamphlet, rather than a book, and if so are there other unmentioned works that merit inclusion? Edjack 11:50, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Privileged Education

This issue keeps being raised in edits to the article.

Foot did not deny the nature of his education, but to say this without using his own or another prominent figures words about him obviously violates NPOV. Richard Ingrams in his Foot biography comments about public school left-wingers referring to their school days in a falsely derogatory way and says that this was true of Foot. I do not have my own copy of the book, but it would make for an interesting contrast to the Chenevix-Trench passage. Philip Cross 19:18, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] orator

It is worth mentioning that Foot was an exceptional orator. 86.201.150.149 (talk) 07:19, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
