Kate Adie, the BBC’s former chief news correspondent, has been speaking to BBC Radio 5 live to discuss the character of Muammar Gaddafi.
The journalist met the Libyan leader met many times in the 1980s, and said: “He’s got a smart brain, but it’s full of rubbish.”
“Quite a lot of what he says comes from sheer ignorance,” Adie told presenter Stephen Nolan. “He’s pretty uneducated, and he makes these bizarre statements.”
