Students remember Bhutto in Oxford debate
The Oxford Union debating society has held a memorial debate in honour of Benazir Bhutto.
The assassinated former Prime Minister of Pakistan was president of the Oxford Union in 1977 and became the first Asian woman to hold the post.
Ms Bhutto's son Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, 19, who is in his first year at Oxford, was among those at the debate but did not participate.
Alan Duncan MP said: "She was amazingly fiery and fun. Standing at this dispatch box she would enliven this chamber."
Since his mother's murder last month, Mr Zardari has been chosen as her successor as leader of the Pakistan People's Party.
While he his studying his father Asif Ali Zardari is responsible for the party's day-to-day leadership.
