I don't think they are particularly right wing or left wing biased. They are very politically correct, which I think people on the right get confused with being left wing. Running stories constantly like 'the first transgender woman of colour boxer who is breaking down barriers' or whatever is politically correct, but it is not left wing. I think certain individuals are a bit biased but the corporation as a whole doesn't have an agenda, apart from being slightly pro-government (towards whoever the current UK government is) as they don't wanna piss them off to much because they might get defunded...

By some miracle I came in 2nd place this year, but I was still way off winning. Well done drol!

She will probably resign her seat to give her successor a clean break. When Cameron resigned as PM, there were news articles quite often about what he was doing on the backbenches, and whether it was undermining May.

Rose West 'to appeal against sentence so she doesn't die in prison'. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/rose-west-to-appeal-against-13792151 She's been promoted from sub to my main list on DDP this year now that Simon Ricketts has died, not sure about her health though as I can't find anything recent about it.
-
I went with Stirling Moss
-
Probably, since it will likely be his last chance to run realistically. I expect he'll still be alive in 2036 tbh he seems like the type
-
Hopefully they get signing that petition!
-
I dropped Joseph Jackson (Michael's Dad) from DDP and other pools this year as well, thought he'd last ages considering his family history of people living to very old ages...
