MIGRANT rights, NHS and Labour Party activist, author and World War II veteran Harry Leslie Smith has checked into a hospital in Canada after a fall.
“Harry is not in a good way,” the 95-year-old’s son John wrote on his father’s Twitter account.
“Harry is in A & E and not in a good way,” the post read. “He asked me to inform you in case things don’t work out. I will keep you posted.”
