Uruguay’s José Mujica lives in a small house rather than a luxurious presidential palace, and, when he was President, gave away 90% of his salary. He legalised marijuana and introduced gay marriage. But his greatest legacy is the way he governed without giving up his revolutionary ideals or philosophy of fairness and equality.

He is a man of integrity who lives the life he speaks of. He is true to the pragmatic philosophy he championed as a revolutionary. What a change from our greedy power-mad mob. How does this compare to the likes of Johnson???

What a hero.
