Absolutely I'm saying that. They just have different things to complain about, like their yacht club meeting has been cancelled, or they can't get dinner at The Fat Duck.

Weeeelllll. I think it's easy to be nice when you inherit huge landholdings from which you derive a merry income, knowing you'll pass it on to your kids relatively tax free because it is held in trust or by a nominated company. Meanwhile, Mrs Pensioner who got that house when her husband died gets her family smashed with a 40 per cent inheritance tax bill. No doubt this chap did a lot of good in his area though. Just a pity they have all the privileges with little of the responsibility we all have in our lives.

Absolutely love these nobs' names. So it is with a sense of responsibility that I refer to the report of Gerard Neville Mark Fane-Trefusis, 22nd Baron Clinton, aged 89: https://www.sidmouthherald.co.uk/news/24231080.lord-clinton-gerard-nevile-mark-fane-died-aged-89/ Heir apparent is his son Charles Patrick Rolle Fane-Trefusis (b. 1962).

Adrian Schiller, British actor, reportedly dead aged 60: https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/national/24230970.victoria-last-kingdom-actor-adrian-schiller-dies-suddenly-aged-60/ Uncle in The Doctor's Wife for Doctor Who and other Who related stuff, many video game voiceovers but probably best known as Penge in the TV series Victoria.

Many of us remember 1992. I'm sure Starmer et al are only too aware of that. However, it's a daily list on the news of how broken Britain is, that surely a change is needed. Whether Labour are the answer is a matter of debate.

Such a relatively obscure guy going about his business, I didn't even bother to check whether he was DDP-ed. We've a Nobel Prize winner without an obit, yet Wilk strolls one.

Cross-posting news of Jerry Abbot's death here.

Given the results of the last election, this could be a bit misleading. After all, a whole lotta Red Tory seats went Blue Tory last time out. Nevertheless, Sunak's on record about taking money out of deprived urban areas and moving it to the traditional Tory voting areas. Not sure what to do with this information, mind.

Report of the death of Ulysses, member of British hip-hop combo Hijack: Signed by Ice-T, they hit #56 in the UK chart in January 1990 with The Badman Is Robbin:

Stage Obit for Fred Van Buren, illusionist probably most famous for his vanishing motorcycle and rider trick: https://www.thestage.co.uk/obituaries--archive/obituaries/fred-van-buren-magician-illusionist His son Andrew is also an illusionist. Here is Fred doing the old fluorescent light penetration trick (oo-er, and whoo) (low quality off a black and white telly with no sound) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QRe0dMHx7k

Ray Lewis, former Deputy Mayor of London under Boris Johnson who Boris rewarded with a CBE in his resignation honours, reportedly dead: https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/boris-johnson-academy-bbc-city-hall-newham-b1149034.html Not only were there allegations of inappropriate behaviour against him (he resigned), old Boris squashed any inquiry into those allegations - the things Wiki doesn't tell you. Dear god, that and Boris' lusting after that American woman and misusing public funds allegedly to fund her, it's a wonder he hasn't been strung up by his bollocks by the hoi polloi.

Maybe slot in the late Joe Flaherty into the BTTF II list @Genfærd? It's not a small role, in fact, it's quite important.

Haven't they admitted their jails are full and are having to release folk early to get more people in? What's the point of jailing these folk? So they can let out a more serious offender? Desperate.

Trevor Griffiths, Manchester born playwright famous for his play Comedians and also for co-writing the screenplay for the Hollywood movie Reds (although he left the project with less than half of it done), reportedly dead: https://www.theguardian.com/stage/2024/apr/02/trevor-griffiths-mancunian-marxist-whose-political-plays-deserve-revival @Death Impends another addition to the List of the Missed, last picked in 2020: https://www.derbydeadpool.co.uk/deadpool2020/celebs_G.html#griftr

Clint Hill for a giggle.

It certainly appears true, on Midge's official FB and Twitter feeds. Looks like Squid's Stiffs had some inside info on him to pick him. (Not eligible for my TOTP team anyway).

Now it is still April Fool's Day but, Ultravox bassist and DDP pick Chris Cross aka Chris Allen is being reported dead:
