How the fuck does Crem spend 20 hours a day on this site and yet still not submit a team?

Cannot wait for that Clive Myrie interview with Jacob Rees-Mogg on election night. Your Name? Jacob Rees-Mogg. Occupation? Member of Parliament. No, try again.

My work is done for the day!

Brian Mulroney, 18th Prime Minister of Canada (1984-1993), has died aged 84. In terms of leaders still with us from the major players in the 80s, there’s only really Joe Clark (16th Prime Minister of Canada) and Jimmy Carter left. Nobody from UK, France, Germany, Soviet Union, China, Australia, Japan etc.

That’s what happens unfortunately when someone is helicoptered around the country to stand in whatever by-election is happening on a hit and hope basis. He doesn’t give a shite about Rochdale or anywhere else his name is put down for.

Beats me.

I’d be in mourning if she died any month of the year

Gosh that’s a poor choice. Her Sunday morning viewing figures are awful. Somehow at the Beeb needs to acknowledge that she’s shit and stop giving her gigs everywhere. They’ll never be able to compensate for losing both Andrew Neil and the Dimblebot.

I've read he's already got his eyes on Derby South for the GE, the seat Margaret Beckett is standing down from. As you say, he cares not one fuck about the people who put him there.

It was sadly inevitable after Azhar Ali took a shit with his clothes on, but the good news is there's a GE in the not too distant future, in which Labour are likely to cut Galloway's time as an MP short. I bet Crem's enjoying another doomwank right now. Probably backs Galloway to be PM.

Aziz Qureshi dead at 83.

@CaptainChorizoSeems that: 09 Kelly Rowland — Stole Got cut off when you copied/posted. NB! Or will the next poster please add it — in case the Captain is no longer online.

In fact it could be the subject of a Tim Burton movie, Frankenwinyi.

Obsessive Carter Disorder?

1st of March today, meaning we progress to the next season of the UK Gammondar:

Until Wayne Eddy dies I'm going to keep thinking for a split second that something's wrong with the early rock-n-roll guitarist.

DBA's team: Jimmy Carter (joker) Steve McMichael Sophia Loren Noam Chomsky Peter Angelos Kathy Brown Theodore McCarrick Emilio Fede Frank Caprio Michael Tilson Thomas Denis Law

Not only that, Ruth Saunders outlived him by a mile. Alas, she's reportedly dead at 107:

Aaaand...looks like John Adams didn't even matter!

Looks like we've got two no-shows, sadly. So, Cpt, Hemlock and Annami, you're already through. Before I post the match-ups, a few notes on disqualifications and allowed names, just so you know where I'm at. Disqualified: - John Adams (MND), "Awareness raisers" need a national profile according to the rules, the BBC local pages didn't cut it for me. - the mother of the Israeli hostage, well, obviously - Chelsey Reynolds: "Award winning apprentice jockey", I thought "apprentice" is more important than "award-winning", so she's not notable ..yet, so to say. Allowed: I-Ho Pomeroy: "Elected politicians at every level" are allowed as per the rules. I posted a reminder of that rule on the forum when UK councillor Jason Smith died, so I call it the "Jason Smith" rule. Craig Cobane: Probably the name I invested the most time in, and thought about the longest. It did seem to me that the position of the college and the scientific level of Mr. Cobane combined were enough, though just barely. I pretty much automatically allowed everybody with a Wikipedia page. The super-duper old are also in. Basically those who would obit, i.e. not 6th oldest North Dakotan or something.

"You" was #2 the week I was born, so the poo thing isn't entirely inaccurate. This was #3 and is a country mile better than both it and the #1, Hero by Enrique Iglesias. It's one of my maw's favourite songs:

Do you check under your bed for Harry and Meghan each night?
