Brian Haw has been named as the winner of the Channel 4 News award for Most Inspiring Political Figure.
Mr Haw received 54 per cent of the votes cast by the public in the channel’s political awards for 2007.
Gen Sir Richard Dannatt, the head of the British Army, who embarrassed the Government by saying troops should be withdrawn from Iraq, came second with 18 per cent.
Tony Blair was backed by eight per cent and David Cameron by six per cent.
Clearly the British public have lost all respect for their political representatives in parliament.
