William Keegan in the Observer reports comments by Denis Healy, the former Labour Chancellor, made last week. He apparently said:

Healey has always been the master of the pithy, biting, phrase. He still is, it seems, at the age of 93.

Pithy, and he also had a good line about Geoffrey Howe. Shame he was such a rubbish Chancellor.
