healey is the last of the old labour who where the working mans party, but sadly todays party is no longer for the working class, he disliked the way new labour went, and for blair's war, his only weakness was in giving a fair wage to workers, at the same time the bank went near bust by the late 70s, and would give more welfare to the poor, but the workers wages would pay for it, he was right about the rich should pay more, with the wealth tax, I think he was trying to be fair to the poor and the working man, in a time that the pound was devalued, and the countries economy was going down fast,
