Laureates Campaign To Add Ted Hughes To Poets' Corner
"Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney heads a roll call of literary figures to have written confidentially to the Dean of Westminster, the Very Rev John Hall, calling for the ultimate accolade to be conferred on Hughes. Other supporters include Sir Andrew Motion, who took over from Hughes as poet laureate, and Lord Bragg as well as prominent academics." London Evening Standard 12/01/09
