    Did he get the MBE for making Harry and Meghan disappear? (Fnah, fnah).

    Boris Johnson

    Michael Gove decided (as many front benchers did) to defend the party PM. Unfortunately for him, it was against Andrew Neil who confronted him with this Government ad: At which point Gove became a gibbering fool.

    Long time John Williams music editor and film score composer in his own right Kenneth Wannberg reportedly dead aged 91: https://musiquefantastique.com/genre-film-music-news/rip-ken-wannberg/ IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0911194/ I'm not going to mention his credits, the article and IMDB is enough. And a name probably unfamiliar to most of us.

    I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue Radio 4

    What a morning to have a lie in and my first hit on my Comedy Cremations team. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-60154371 Nobody knew so much about the art of British comedy and the people who made it, working with the great, the good and the average for donkeys years. On that par with Frank Muir and Denis Norden, he could make a gag that would make you laugh out loud because of how silly it was or indeed how dry and cutting he could be. I will miss him, RIP to you Barry.

    Deadpool Detective Work

    One for @Ulitzer95's research. Here is a death Notice for Audrey Lilian Noble who has died aged 106: http://announcements.telegraph.co.uk/deaths/254998/audrey-lilian-noble Astonishingly, there was an actress called Audrey Noble, also born 1915 who IMDB has dead in 2016: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1009523/ Now I have noted the different birth dates, however, both born in Bristol which would appear to be an amazing coincidence. I may have a look round the forum, maybe the 2016 death was reported here? Edit: Nope.

    Boris Johnson

    I have no idea anymore. Living in a world of make believe at the moment. All it demonstrates is that Johnson told another bare faced lie. And could those aircraft have been used to save human lives? I dunno. Ah well, we'll see how long he carries on...

    Boris Johnson

    Foreign Office emails released showing that Johnson did intervene in the evacuation of his mate's animals from Afghanistan over people who helped British Forces during the conflict, a matter which Johnson denied on 7th December in answer to a reporter's question on the matter. Wonder how Tugendhat and his ilk feel about that?
