  1. Ooh, is YouTube embedding back on?!* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIfZXSXRsYI Merry Christmas, you bloody cheeky monkey sod peeps. *EDIT: No.
  2. No idea, but the elongated build up to Christmas is really boiling her piss.
  3. People saying it's "Christmas Eve, Eve". Fuck off, off.

    Ask A Deathlister

    Deathlisty enough I think...loads of people know of the seminal works of Toto.
  5. The Labour Together committee, which will analyse and discuss why the election was such a failure for them, will be joined by Ed Miliband, off of Labour election failures.

    How many hits this year?

    Just measuring up for my coronation gown.
  7. Shadow List: Not bad. 15 is two better than last year, the year before, and the official DL this year. I genuinely thought I'd have about 20. But I'll accept this performance. It's a PB, so not too shabby. B+ Deathrace: Never reached 2019, leave alone being vaguely in the running. Turd. F Advent Avalanche: Cunt's still alive. Bollocks. E- Deathlist Cup: Debut year, and I was a quarter finalist; I'll fucking take that! B+ Inverse (off of Wormfarmer): Cunted it with Carol Channing early doors. I was like third last or something. E Inverse (off of Death Impends): Showed some promise. I mean, I'm not going to win the thing, but I'm the healthy end of the leaderboard. Currently 4th, I think? I might as well get something out of my picks not snuffing, I suppose. A- Death by Numbers: I picked names like a numpty, and I've spent most of the year the numpty-end of the leaderboard. Picked up a bit, but still absolutely nowhere. Worst thing is I haven't even drafted a list for next year yet. Best get a shifty on. D- Five4Three2One Mk.II: I think I was a bit better at the old format, but it's still not the biggest disaster known to man. But 30 points equates to an average of one top-scoring death every two months over the year, and, when put like that, it doesn't exactly sound that impressive. C Oldest State Leaders: Fucking Hau Pei-tsun. F Deaths of the Silver Screen: I GOT A HIT! Anna Quayle, may she rest in peace. Unfortunately, I also have Dick Van Dyke in my team, which means I'm probably not in the running unless round 1 goes on until 2034. B Windy City: An improvement on the last time I did it, but it's still a work-in-progress job. I'm not embarrassed like last year, at least. B- DeathList Correctlist: So I'm now at the correct number of hits! Unfortunately, 7 of those hits weren't on my guess list. Poor form, I suppose, but I'm not last. C- So overall, I'm still bollocks at this game. But it's about the taking part, etc. etc.

    The 14th death of 2019

    Meh, too late.

    The 13th death of 2019

    Cock. He was on pretty much every 2020 list I had.

    The 2019 Deathlist Cup

    What a relief. I think we all appreciate you dedicating your time to this, Roey. I intend to cut back my workload at the end of next year, so feel free to bear me in mind for 2021. In the meantime, though, thanks geez!

    Prince Philip Duke Of Edinburgh

    Hospitalised. Something pre-existing though, so probably no biggie. I still think he'll see 100. EDIT: Beaten to it. me.
  13. I know who he is, but it does remind me of when Kit Malthouse stood for Tory leadership. He’s a filler on the ballot paper. Meat in the room. He’s about as much chance at the leadership as I have
  14. Yep. Bit like the hilarious stat that 3% of Brexit Party supporters back remain.
  15. Excuse the fact this is from ToryGov, but it illustrates how the vote changed from ‘17 and ‘19 relative to Brexit.
  16. Could well happen. Wouldn’t necessarily be too bad either; as proven with Tom Watson, it’s easy to ignore the Deputy.
  17. So it looks increasingly likely that Rebecca Wrong-Daily and Angela Rayner running together on a ‘dream ticket’, with Rayner as Deputy. Sounds more like a fucking nightmare to me. Also poor old Richard Burgon, being left hanging by Wrong-Daily with his little flaccid dick hanging out with a ‘vote Rebecca’ sticker on it.
  18. Would be interesting to know yeah, but I can’t help but think that the support he’d have lost backing Brexit would be similar to the amount he lost by not backing it, though obviously this support wouldn’t probably have gone to the Tories and it mightn’t have been so North-centric.
  19. Emily Thornberry’s getting off to a flyer by seeking legal action against ex-colleague Caroline Flint.
  20. Dan Jarvis would be a great choice. His central stance is what we need; I don't know enough about him to make the most detailed judgement but he seems like he's got some common sense, too. He'd be the Lib Dems' worst nightmare, and hopefully would do well at holding Boris' shower of cunts to account. Sir Keir has already proven he can in PMQs. He's not got a bad public rep, and I genuinely think his ardent remain stance would probably attract around as many people as it'd put off (in total, anyway; the North might not be happy still though). Also good choice. Jess Phillips at least makes a modicum of sense. Strong woman, not too far left, connects with the public, would eviscerate Johnson at the first whiff of bullshit. You've also got David Lammy; very intelligent, good at making and arguing a point, lefty but not quite at McDonnell levels, maybe needs a bit more of a profile outside of London. Also not likely to stand yet; maybe after Labour's next election loss. Emily Thornberry can hold her own too, and as a politician she's respectable. But not respected; she has a very condescending image that won't win over voters. Yvette Cooper has signalled she wants to run, because of course she did so well last time she ran for leadership. Safe-ish pair of hands, but it's not going to happen is it? And any of the others would be utterly disastrous and would kill Labour off completely. But when it comes to likelihood, it's between Keir and 'Becca.

    The 5th Crowdsource Deathlist (2020 edition)

    Yeah, I've heard of David Butler, not a bad shout. Except it is obviously, because that'd be far too "UK-centric".
  23. TQR

    UK election. You voted for?

    The EU is not a dictatorship, rather the polar opposite. And Corbyn is a pacifist. This is all I'm saying. I could elaborate, but I tend not to waste time explaining things to suspected idiots.
