Basking In Reflected Glory.

Nelson Mandela is a fine statesman and held in the highest regard throughout the world. A statue of Mr Mandela is a fine addition to any self respecting city. Is it not a pity however that at 89 years old the great man can't be left in peace to enjoy his remaining years? Must he be dragged half-way across the world so that posturing, avaricious, lying, thieving, murdering con-men can try and gain some kudos from sharing a stage with him?
