Death

What were the circumstances of his death? Did he become ill, and suffered, or did something else happen to him? Was his death an accident? 216.99.219.238 (talk) 04:52, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

He died of leukemia. I'll add this to the article. Nandt1 (talk) 01:40, 28 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Recasting lede

The previous lede's summary of KZ's political positions and significance did not seem to meet NPOV standards, or to capture the account provided in the main body of the text. Rather than heavily influencing UK policy towards Eastern Europe as the earlier draft suggested, KZ is surely much better seen as a dissident challenging the orthodoxy (albeit mostly to limited effect). I have made a good faith account to provide an NPOV version compatible with the rest of the article. Nandt1 (talk) 15:42, 24 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Incoherent statement about Ethiopia needs clarification

There is a sentence about KZ's efforts vis-a-vis Ethiopia that currently makes no sense. There is talk of him "convincing the British public to impose sanctions on Italy on 27 September 1935, should it attempt to conquer Ethiopia". The sequence of events here is totally unclear. I don't know the facts sufficiently well to correct the sentence, but someone needs to do so -- it makes no coherent sense. Nandt1 (talk) 03:48, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

After reviewing earlier versions of this article, I have myself reformulated the sentence to be less obviously anomalous. This said, an editor with access to the original source could no doubt improve the clarity of this discussion further. Nandt1 (talk) 21:21, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Image

Is it possible to find an image of him, which would illustrate the point of Churchill's remark that he was "not as nice as he looked" ?Seadowns (talk) 15:21, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
