THE SUDDEN DEATH OF MICHAEL MEACHER

Michael Meacher, who died yesterday, was in many ways the intellectual powerhouse behind the insurrection that saw Jeremy Corbyn elected leader of the Labour Party this summer.

He was one of the few politicians to attend the Parliamentary debate on money creation, he gave a stirring speech at the protests when UK hosted the secretive Bilderberg Group, and he was the only mainstream politician to raise questions about the 911 attacks, with a 2003 article in the Guardian headed "This War on Terrorism is Bogus".

His 911 stance led to an aggressive character assassination campaign by the US London Embassy. Later, when he planned a showing of the 911 sceptic movie Loose Change in the House of Commons it was cancelled at the last moment while Michael said privately that he feared violent repercussions.

In recent weeks he was active again behind the scenes, supporting a 911 family member who is seeking a new inquest. At a private Commons meeting last autumn he seemed in excellent health. He said he did not feel anything like his age and might stand again for Parliament.

News reports have given no details of the cause of Michael's unexpected death beyond a statement from Peter Dean, his constituency office manager, who said: "We are extremely sad and it has been quite a short illness he has had and we just don't know the details at present".

Ian Henshall an organiser of Reinvestigate 911 said: "I hope that, to put to rest any lingering doubts, his aides will take a close look and divulge full details of what happened.

"Even more importantly, I hope the Corbyn leadership recognises the urgent need to replace Michael with someone who understands the big issues and is sceptical of the veracity of news reports in the Western media."
