Parkinson has that Tory quality - the ability to pretend that something 'unpleasant' simply never happened.
He never acknowledged his affair, or his daughter, because it was simply an inconvenience to his political and public image, and it would appear that his family lined up right behind him with the same attitude.
I would be deeply ashamed to be associated with this man in any way, but again, as is the Tory way, he eulogies make much of his 'talent, charisma and personality', and carefully look away from the other facets of his character -that he is a callous cold-blooded mercenary hypocrite who put himself before anyone else on the planet.
His passing should not be mourned at all.
