Gwyneth Dunwoody dies aged 77

This has come as a bit of a shock. The BBC has just announced that she has died. Gwyneth Dunwoody was a great campaigner, a very good chairman of the Transport Select Committee, and a doughty fighter for backbenchers' rights. Nobody coming before her committee, such as Network Rail bosses, would get very far by trying to pull the wool over her eyes. I doubt if she knew how to spin. Very forthright and very acceptable as a member of Parliament.

She will be missed.
