John Smith (UK politician) - One Language (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13) |
 | | John Smith (September 13, 1938 - May 12, 1994) was a British politician who served as leader of the Labour Party from July 1992 until his unexpected death from a heart attack in May 1994. |
 | | John Smith was buried on the holy island of Iona, special permission having already been obtained. |
 | | Smith's death - although he had suffered a serious heart attack in 1988 he was widely seen as fully recovered - caused an emotional convulsion that, in a small way, prefigured the outpouring of grief that followed the equally unexpected death of Diana, Princess of Wales three years later. |
