And another quote, not on politics but traffic wardens, showing Berkoff's typical understatement
"Steven Berkoff is the latest star of London's theatreland to regale against the capital's notorious traffic wardens. In a letter to yesterday's Evening Standard, the steely-eyed former Bond villain has accused Hackney Council of running a racket comparable to the days of the Kray twins.
"My car was towed away behind the Hackney Empire where I thought I could legally park," he writes. "At the pound I produced my keys, driving licence, credit cards and congestion zone card. I was refused the car because I didn't have my insurance documents and logbook with me.
"It was safer under the Krays; at least you knew they were lawless."
