The death of Edward Heath -what is there to say? A monumental non entity has passed away leaving absolutely nothing behind. He represented a disastrous era in British politics where nothing worked and the Unions ran the country. He failed miserably to get them in line until he fell at the hands of Thatcher who got the job done famously to his curmudgeonly and graceless chagrin.
His only achievement was to con the British people into thinking the EU - then called the common market, was just that and not what it really was: a profoundly political and un democratic not to say totalitarian structure. Heath lived long enough to see the monlith begin to crack and to crumble -the only pity is he didn't live long enough to see its complete collapse.
