Jack Jones passed away in his sleep on Tuesday night aged 96. Jones was a life long Union man, veteran of the Anti-Fascist war in Spain and descibed at one time in 1977 as 'the most powerful man in Britain' ahead of the then Prime Minister, James Callaghan. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/8011514.stm |
