Tony benn.
One of a tiny handful of men to have gone through public school and Oxbridge and learned the difference between right and wrong !
One of the last remaining Labour politicians in the Labour party.
TheAntiParadox hopefully some new ones now!
There will never be another Dennis Skinner nor a Tony Benn. Marvellous tribute.
Skinner is one of the only honest MP's left with the right morals.
Skinner is one of the only honest MP's left with the left morals.
The lack of Conservatives is obvious; but the lack of Labour is heartbreaking. They truly are lost.
Didn't expect anything less from Dennis, spoken from the heart.
You can feel the love Dennis Skinner had for Tony Benn.
I'm a Yorkshire man and we don't shed a tear but I have a few right now.
God help us when Dennis finishes. Fantastic speech.

The last of his kind. It'll be a tragedy when he's gone.
What a great orator Denis Skinner is
Have just watched this,someone has thrown water into my face,it's everywhere.
Brilliant
Dennis Skinner, a legend.
RIP Tony Benn, a friend I never knew.
Sami Benbella This should be too comment.
One of my two favourite parliamentarians of my lifetime, paying tribute to the other one.
Completely wonderful tribute. Compassionate, warm, respectful and honest.
Could listen to him speak all day long. What a legend. Tony Benn too. Men for the PEOPLE
2 wonderful men of principle.
Far too rare these days.
One of the few in parliament worthy of paying tribute to the great man.
Tony Benns lost is still felt, what a man, what a brilliant man, a vanguard of the working man, fair play to Dennis too, another lion of the left
Made me cry - not much can do that these days.
Respect
The struggle continues comrades. Working Men and Women of all lands Unite.
One wonderful man with integrity, talking about another wonderful man with integrity. Shame there aren't more like them
As a teacher for 25 years, I'd like to bid the fondest of farewells to the head of my profession, and to thank the wonderful Dennis for this beautiful tribute.
I get the feeling that no matter what side the pollies sit on, this man is loved and respected. What a marvellous character.
A privilege to listen to this man honour Tony Benn.
An excellent tribute to a great man. Long live Dennis!
Tony and Dennis. No tory will ever come near the admiration felt by people for these two wonderful men.
Keep going Corbyn , Skinner etc. You're doing a great job.
OMG....such a wonderful speech.....put a tie on! Dennis Skinner a genuine 100% devoted to his work....such a great bloke.
what a superb tribute, and what a superb delivery of it. I agree that Dennis too deserves an equally good tribute when that day finally comes.
There will be no one worthy of giving Dennis' tribute in parliament.
A great man paying tribute to another great man.
There's only one recognized batsman left with the departure of Tony Benn. We'd love to see a century from this great man.
Its a pity most of the shower couldnt be bothered to stay and listen
I agree with a the comments here. The working people of this country have lost a true champion.
It was my privilige to hear Tony Benn at the Tolpuddle festival for many years. It won't be the same without him, as he was part of the furniture.
Fine words from the beast.

One of the best men of the 20th and 21st centuries, heartwarmingly describing one of the best of the 20th and 21st centuries. Big names, big personalities and big missions.
I very heart felt tribute. well done Dennis.
brought tears tome eyes, what a speech.
Lovely tribute from the best MP in the House
I hadn't seen this before. Thank you for uploading it Susie. I was a fan of Benn, a hugely principled man who spoke his true beliefs always, was intelligent, incredibly hard-working and should have been Labour leader. I also like Skinner for similar reasons; an MP for four decades and loved by his constituents because he's honest and works hard for them. So few MPs like them are left now and that's a real pity. I don't vote Labour myself, in fact I'm a Tory; but I recognise honest, principled people and I recognise that our parliament is the worse off for the passing of Tony Benn and his kind. Skinner does give a wonderful tribute to him; he clearly lost a good friend.
scabbycat cat Oh, I have no argument against you there!
If Benn had won the contest for leadership of the Labour Party the working class people would still have a LABOUR party. What we have is a total self centred shower with the difference between the major parties being less than the thickness of a strand of hair!
Absolutely wonderful. What a great orator. No notes. Great shot of Nick Clegg. We love you Dennis!
The virtually empty House here shows just how far modern British politics have moved away from the Socialist movement. I endorse all the comments below about Dennis Skinner's wonderful and moving tribute to Tony Benn.
What a wonderful tribute from one great to another.
Thank you for finding this piece of brilliance
fantastic! two great great men.
Why have I just discovered your channel. This man is my idol
+christopher madden ive been here ages!!!!!!! loads of Dennis Stuff!
From one great gentleman to another!
lovely man.. so much respect for Dennis and Tony
Wish there were more in Parliament like Dennis Skinner. Hope he wins another election. I wish him a long life.
Wonderful tribute. Bought tears to my eyes.
A great tribute to a Great Man from another!
Tony Benn will be sorely missed. Dennis Skinner has given a wonderful tribute to a man who was loved by many. R.I.P. Tony.
Skinner,The Living Legend !!!!!!
Brilliant ! No script straight from the heart... The rest of them probably seeing what they can fiddle next !
Brilliant. Hope someone does the same for Dennis when he goes. He has a close-by seat to Chesterfield in Whitwell, Derbyshire with a similar constituency population and is held, quite rightly, in the very highest esteem.
Yes, he is well known to be an excellent constituency MP, i.e. he really looks after those in his constituency.
An incredible tribute by an incredible man to an incredible man
Needs stay in there until his last breathe. What a man.
Go Denis you and Tony are true working class heroes
This upload is priceless.
Keep it up. More, please.
Thank you for uploading this, Susiepip. A wonderful tribute from one honourable, principled man to another.
You do not have to agree with Tony Benn's politics to admire, respect and like this truly great politician, speaker, writer, character and true gentleman. We have lost a genuine treasure. Rest in peace, Mr Benn. You will be very sadly missed.
Thanks Dennis...Respect
Absolutely top drawer stuff from the indomitable Dennis Skinner. The last socialist bastion of the Labour Party. Fantastic tribute to a great man. Sincere, passionate and emotional. The only great character left in the morbid House of Commons.
Brilliant tribute to a brilliant man.
What a tribute...fantastic speach ..the most colourfull man in house of commons..Dennis Skinner ....could be an stand-up comedian / high-class actor as well..
One Legend remembers another...nice work Dennis.
Lovely speech, almost shed a tear!
Thanks to Dennis - and to Tony too, of course!
Thank you Susiepip for posting this lovely tribute.
This makes me so sad, were is the revolution. Were is our humanity.
I was outside pentoville prison protesting for the release of the pentoville dockers.
a fitting tribute to a great man
Wonderful speech...Tony Benn RIP.
Both great legends never to be forgotten
who could beat that speech.
Skinner......the only one left.
Sadly, I think you're right.
benn a true man for the people . unlike the tossers now . benn hold you head up hi were ever you are knowing you did what you could for us m8 .A true peoples politician and stood for us till the end rip m8
One great political orator paying tribute to another fantastic video
A speech on written, detailed and full of history for the latter stages of the 20 century
Why wasn't the house full for this tribute? Long may your wisdom live on Tony. I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Tony and it was the best time of my life - to work with a true gentleman and man of integrity. Thank you Tony and thank you Dennis.
I've been fortunate to have lived in his constituency throughout my voting life. Nobody has had better value from their MP
I wish I could public speak like this man, respect to him
brilliant!
Dennis Skinner should of been prime minister!
Brilliant post 10/10
Skinner might not get to be prime minister he is a bit old.
Will Jeremy Cornyn do ??
Dave Cole Better than the alternative I suppose
He never wanted to be PM.
Dennis Skinner's most underrated strengths are his compassion ,humour & intellectual intelligence .
truly brilliant
What a wonderful, warm, affectionate speech. How dare the spineless political pygmies on the Labour front bench laugh along patronisingly. They aren't even fit to sit on the same benches Tony sat on.
this man has inspired me throughout my young life - if any one needed to understand why some people want to improve the world for everyone and will fight for ever against those who treat fellow humans like dirt. Well Dennis, Tony Benn and Jeremy Corbyn led and are leading that fight. Let's all get behind them and treat those who despise us, with understanding for their inadequacies and paucity of their lives:. They have nothing to be proud of ever!
R.I.P Tony
Absolutely brilliant. Dennis and tony the two best ever. Just found this channel will be subscribing thanks
What a great tribute to Tony Benn
Any man who smoked St Bruno was the man for me.
Pure show Biz, great stuff Dennis!
typical. the bloody place is empty when important things are said. RIP Anthony xx
You should be on the stage Dennis!
a wonderful tribute
Thank you for this
what a wonderful soulful man :)
great chaps Dennis and Tony
Beautiful.
Fantastic
Wow. Just wow
