Hilary Mantel dead: https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/19896875/author-hilary-mantel-dead/

Current German MP for the Social Democrats, Rainer Keller, dies unexpectedly at 56: https://www.spiegel.de/politik/deutschland/spd-rainer-keller-ist-tot-a-90038df1-0aad-4d59-b5f7-b894e2f743d9

Donald M. Blinken dead at 96: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-63003583

That must be a fake post. I've received an email from the Governor of the Bank of Nigeria. Apparently, she's got over a £ billion hidden there but he needs my help to get it out. However, I'm a bit worried that he won't send the 20% commission to my Paraguayan bank account in the name of Adolf Goering.

The way to help people plunged into fuel/food poverty by this cost of living crisis is clearly to scrap the 45% tax rate for those earning over £150,000 and bin the 200%-of-salary cap on bankers’ bonuses. Nice one, Chancellor Khazi.

Very sad, represented the traveller community and was a NHS mental health nurse. Rest gently and rise in glory Cherry/George

John Hartman, a drummer and founding member of the Doobie Brothers, has died. He was 72. https://ultimateclassicrock.com/doobie-brothers-john-hartman-dead/

You would.

Candidate on Drag Race UK season 2 Cherry Valentine has died age 28. RIP…

Pia Velsi seems to be very frail right now.

Oh that's sad, and a little unexpected. I mean, such a young death is always unexpected, but he wasn't exactly on the radar. They haven't yet said why he died though, doesn't have to be overdose/suicide. The season 4 premiere was yesterday, coincindentally (?).

Jason Alexander is 63.

Mary Kay Place, the notable American actress, director, screenwriter, singer and songwriter probably remembered for her extraordinary portrayal of country music singer Loretta Haggers in the cult classic television series "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman", is 75 today. She won an Emmy Award for her role. Juan Martín del Potro, Argentine tennis player winner of the U.S. Open in 2009, against Roger Federer, and a bronze medal at the London Olympics, after beating Novak Djokovic, in 2012, is 34 today. He also won a silver medal at the Rio Olympics, in 2016. Del Potro is the only Argentine tennis player to win two Olympic medals.

Which also means the Duke of Kent is the only remaining descendant of George V who was alive while he was. George V died January 1936, Princess Alexandra was born December 1936. Meaning the Duke is also the only remaining descendant alive from the reign of Edward VIII.

imo this is a spectacular achievement tbh.

Nicholas Witchell, a man we have seen a lot of recently in the UK as a result of the death of Queen Elizabeth ll , celebrates his 69th birthday today. Witchell is the royal correspondent for BBC News.

That's harsh. Camilla is just getting old.

Didn't think it was that serious tbh.

Charlotte Gainsbourg, the British-French actress and singer known not only as the daughter of French musician Serge Gainsbourg and British-French actress and singer Jane Birkin, is 51 today. Norman Jewison, Canadian film director, producer and screenwriter, one of Canada's most admired filmmakers, whose body of work includes "The Cincinnati Kid", "In the Heat of the Night", "Fiddler on the Roof" and "Moonstruck", is 96 today.

Criminals getting off with stuff because of a fad. I’m off to Kensington Palace to take down Diana’s statue because I *BELIEVE* she was a traitor against the Royal Family.

I voted for the Ayatollah inshalla....
