Actually a bit saddened by this news, though it was expected. I always quite liked Prescott's punchy style.

Not off to a good start...

Will he have two hearses?

Blair's line afte the puching incident was superb. "Well I did tell John to go out and connect with the electorate" RIP John

Family now concerned about his health.

Whatever his real age was, Joe Baker died back in March.

Agnes Boström, oldest person from Sweden dead at 112, just a month after Gunborg Hancock

She was talked in the dying bigots thread. This thread is for those who actively participated to Nazi activities during WWII. And there are very very few of them nowadays, for obvious reasons. Haverbeck was not one of them.

The Star, always reliable when it comes to representing unfolding events with the requisite gravitas, or summat

A veteran of a time when a politician had the guts to say what was really on their mind, and at least a few braincells to back it up. RIP.

One less in an impressive series of British political elders: Tebbitt, Skinner, Bill Rodgers, Dick Taverne, Heseltine, Hattersley, Douglas Hurd, Norman Fowler... Quite a bubble which is destined to explode sooner or later.

As mentioned in the Dying Bigots thread, German Holocaust denialist and Neo-Nazi activist Ursula Haverbeck has died at age 96. For the D-A-CH-List, she is considered another miss because we included her on the first two lists in 2021 and 2022. But ultimately it is certainly a death that we are all "happy" with. One Nazi less. https://www.n-tv.de/politik/Mit-96-Jahren-Die-Holocaustleugnerin-Ursula-Haverbeck-ist-tot-article25376445.html

Now that i've posted this, there will be hell toupee

A pontiff so considerate could at least have slipped a clue about the date to dead poolers!

As if nobody has lied on or greatly exaggerated parts of their CV before. The arising of this story suggests they've run out of government news to attack and now have to go for relatively minor things about specific MPs. This was essentially the crux of beer gate.

It could have been an exorcism

Also Duffy (104) & Baker (90).

Yeah, but...

Andy Paley, who made a living of writing songs mostly for cartoons such as The Ren & Stimpy Show, Digimon, SpongeBob SquarePants, and Camp Lazlo and producing albums for artists such as Brian Wilson, Jonathan Richman, NRBQ, John Wesley Harding, the Greenberry Woods, and Jerry Lee Lewis, has died aged 72. https://ultimateclassicrock.com/andy-paley-brian-wilson-dead/

You're right, @Summer in Transylvania. There's no obit yet. A little bit of patience.

Is there a QO yet? I have no doubt that one will arrive, but I haven't seen any thus far.
