"Grandee" is a term often used to described politicians who have semi-retired to the Lords or are CEOs or similar. Their opinions are venerated. But when is a Grandee really just a Political Has-Been? A lot of these Grandees have been involved in the referendums (Scotland & Brexit) and subsequent debates - e.g. Heseltine, Major, Blair.
Yesterday I heard Paddy Ashdown give reasons why people voted Brexit including "because they got out of bed on the wrong side" - how dismissive is that of the electorate? They disagreed with you Paddy - no need to be so patronising.
Therefore he's my nomination for Political Has-Been - any other nominations?
