    FATHER OF THE HEARSE! 7/50 27th February 2017 British politician Sir Gerald Kaufman has died to give The Crowdsourced Deathlist another success. A leading student politician in the 1950s, Kaufman became a confidant of the future PM Harold Wilson, and later a sketch writer for TV satirical show That Was The Week That Was, before he won election as the Labour MP for Manchester Ardwick in 1970. Whilst a junior minister in the Callaghan government, he was better known for being a prominent member of Neil Kinnock's Shadow Cabinet throughout the 1980s, famously dubbing the 1983 Labour election manifesto "the longest suicide note in history". He later became a respected if caustic, and outspoken if sometimes controversial backbench MP, and in 2015 became the Father of the House of Commons. In 1962, Gerald Kaufman wrote the famous T3 sketch, The Silent Men of Westminster, and later went onto emulate it in the last year of his life. Kaufman was 86, having spent forty-seven years at Westminster, and making his debut on The Crowdsourced Deathlist.

    Former US Vice President Walter Mondale has to be worth a shot, he'll turn 90 in 2018, also Ron Paul should be one to consider, although I don't think he'll be going anywhere for a few years yet.

    I think it's an omen for Peter Carrington to be the 3rd Deathlist hit this year.

    In the 2015 General Election for Manchester Gorton, Labour received 28,187 (67.1%). The closest party to them were the Greens with 4,108 (9.8%). This gives them a majority of 24,000. Simply put, Labour could stand a donkey with a red rosette and win - Jeremy can rest easy on this one.

    Sir Gerald Kaufman, MP for Manchester Gorton and Father of The House, has died aged 86. BBC obituary here. Presumably it shall be Ken Clarke to assume the role as new Father of The House.

    It wasn't, and therefore I'll continue directly my fucking away from myself. Dickie O's thread is - however - a place of happy memories for the handful of old timers remaining hereabouts

    Hewlett is in fact the only one who was picked for this update, as while Abdel-Rahman was eligible, no one selected him (shame). Not a huge change in the scores this time, as he only gives a basic point and a DQSBP point. The only people who will be getting more than two is msc for finding secret spot #25 and Bibliogryphon, who jokered him. Here's the scores: 1st - Captain Chorizo - 48 points 2nd - Death Impends - 44 points 3rd= - msc - 43 points 3rd= - RadGuy - 43 points 5th - Dead Cow - 42 points 6th - Bibliogryphon - 35 points 7th - RishCast - 34 points 8th= - Shaun of the Dead - 33 points 8th= - Unknown Man - 33 points 10th - Pedro67 - 32 points 11th - joeyruss - 18 points 12th - YoungWilz - 17 points 13th - Gooseberry Crumble - 3 points 14th - Cat O'Falk - minus 1 point The biggest place change this update is Bibliogryphon, who jumped from 9th all the way to 6th due to a group of people who didn't have Hewlett. Meanwhile, not only did RadGuy drop a place in the podium, he also now has to share his spot with msc. Chorizo maintains his lead, but Death Impends has been slowly climbing up the leaderboard. Will he finally replace Chorizo next time?

    Father, forgive me, it's been 48 hours since my last post in this thread. Jeremy Corbyn's speech to the Scottish Labour Party Conference has just added another nomination for La La Land.

    Jeez, I'd better up my reporting rate then! Maybe I should have said probable, but then in Almond's case, it wouldn't apply, necessarily. He'll drop dead of a latent aneurysm now, knowing my predicting skills...see any side game!

    She will make it until next year IMO . The medication she is on now is working , with the opportunity for more medical treatment after that stops working to extend her life. 5 months on she is a little more skinny but she doesn't look like someone on deaths door maybe more like in deaths garden .

    DI's been one of the best posters on here for years, he just posts rarely compared to certain others who flood the forum. He's making a top admin/mod so far too.

    Is this a Tory plot to convince people to believe in Shamanism over medicine, thereby reducing the burden on the NHS?

    Worth noting that if 2003 World Scrabble Champion Panupol Sujjayakorn dies at any time in the next ten years he'll qualify for this thread.

    A few years back, I fell for a Manuel Noriega is terminally ill hoax played on me by a political pal. In revenge, I randomly told him I'd heard Simon Hoggart was "in a bad way", so they picked him for the deadpool they were in. You know what happened next? Hoggart went and bloody died, the bastard.
