Former UK Labour Prime Minister Lord Callaghan, has died on the eve of his 93rd Birthday at his home in Sussex, England, just eleven days after the death of his wife, Audrey. He was probably best remembered for the “Winter of Discontent’ when garbage piled up in the streets in 1978, and ‘Green Goddess’ fire tenders operated by the Army were used, due to striking public service workers.

I actually met him once, at a function in Rochester Kent during the 1983 Election campaign.
