Talk:Ed Broadbent

Untitled
Some more could be said about Broadbent's political views, including quotes. By the way, is he really a social democrat or is he a socialist who belongs to a social democratic party? - no name

I find his Biography strange that it says they had no children and only adopted. I would like to suggest it is re-worked as follows;

That year, he married a young Franco-Ontarian widow, Lucille Munroe; the couple also adopted a baby girl, Christine and Ed became the stepfather to Lucille's son Paul Broadbent, who is a defence policy specialist with the Ministry of Defence in London, England.

-- How did he fly a fighter aircraft in WWII when he was born in 1936 and could only have been 9 years old at war's end? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.116.196.130 (talk) 21:05, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
