Real heroes are seldom remembered. Only charlatans and shady characters hog people's minds.

If he was English they would be constantly praising him every five minutes

[@att6484]

​@@jackieroberts7895 I'm English and genuinely can't disagree with you. I had no idea who nye bevan was or what he had achieved until very recently. It's criminal that this man isn't more celebrated.

Aneurin Bevan changed me and my views on life in general....I had to name my son after him as my heart was touched so deeply by the actions of Aneurin Bevan......He once said ..."Liberty was not won on the battlefield, but at home!" Never forgot this ! Wish i could of know him for real ❤

Bevan was a man of integrity, principle and passion - our current crop of politicians are bacterial life in comparison.

Diolch yn fawr Nye for fighting for the good of the ordinary person. You never forgot your Welsh roots. Diolch for fighting for our NHS. I, for one, will fight to keep it x

Aneurin Bevan, the south wales lad. In valleys deep and mountains high, Aneurin Bevan's spirit doth fly. A champion of the common man, A beacon bright in life's grand plan. With heart aflame and soul on fire, He fought for justice, pure and entire. For healthcare free, a nation's dream, A testament to his noble scheme. Through trials and tribulations he stood, A steadfast rock, a guiding wood. His legacy, a shining light, A testament to his moral might. So let us raise a glass to Bevan's name, A hero true, without a stain. Whose vision lives, a guiding star, Inspiring millions, near and far.

Aneurin Bevan, the People's Champion A beacon of hope in a world of strife, Aneurin Bevan, a champion of life. He fought for the masses, the poor, and the weak, A voice for the voiceless, a leader to seek. With passion and fervor, he fought for their cause, For healthcare and housing, and just, equitable laws. He dreamed of a nation where all would be free, From want and from sickness, from misery. But tragedy struck, and his journey was cut short, A heart that had given so much, no longer could support. Yet his legacy lives on, a shining example to see, Of courage and compassion, and selfless decree. So let us remember, this man of the people, Whose spirit will forever inspire and rekindle. Aneurin Bevan, a hero of our time, Whose name will forever be etched in the rhyme.

Thank you NHS

Aneurin Bevan, Architect of Hope From coal-dark valleys, where the spirit burned, A champion rose, his heart for all concerned. Aneurin Bevan, with a fiery tongue, For justice fought, where wrongs had long been clung. He dreamt of health, a right for every one, A shield from sickness, beneath the setting sun. The NHS, his masterpiece, a crown of gold, Where healing hands would work, stories yet untold. A voice of reason, in a tempest's roar, He stood for fairness, forevermore. Aneurin Bevan, a beacon in the night, Whose legacy shines bright, a guiding light.
