A good politician lost... not often that the death of a politician deserves sorrow...

Just read this on the BBC, great anecdote... :lol:

Sir Edward never forgave Mrs Thatcher for ousting him as leader and refused to serve in her Cabinet.

When asked in a TV interview if it was true that when Mrs Thatcher was herself deposed he said "rejoice, rejoice," he joked: "I think I said it three times."

Great documentary on the life of Ted Heath on BBC2. I never realised that he went to my old school :shock:

A really good and principled man.
