Spoof Speech by Nye Bevan

A friend sent me this hilarious video - where the voice of Nye Bevan has been replaced by a pretty good impression.

Nye Bevan was the visioniary Labour MP and cabinet minister responsible for establishing the NHS. He is one of my personal heroes. (My A-Level project was a study of his life and achievements). My grandmother - also born a Bevan appears on the same page in the records of births, deaths and marriages - as they were born a few days apart (although in different parts of Wales.

Despite the reverence I have towards this great man - I loved this video. Thanks Marielle for forwarding it to me.
