Ulitzer95

There's a Wiki friendly source in the form of a website obit here.

French historian Jean-Jacques Becker (wiki) dead at 95. Breaking news on Le Monde. Huge news in France. Whole country is crying. (Sorry, just channeling @Lafaucheuse)

Jimmy Weldon (wiki) dead at 99. Liberated Buchenwald concentration camp during WWII, became a voice actor and ventriloquist and was the last surviving member of The Yogi Bear Show cast. FB tributes here, here, here, and here. EDIT: A DDP pick for one team.

A mate at the Beeb has now informed me it is indeed Edwards.

Can we please stop the hyperbole and poor terminology? A 17 year old is not a "kid". Age of consent is 16 in the UK. 16/17 year olds are still minors, but they're not "children" or "kids". Children are pre-pubescent human beings. Engaging in sexual conduct with a 12 year old is a million miles away from engaging in such with someone who has reached sexual maturity, and the two should never be banded together.

Not sure we need to post the list of every single country each time a player dies. Should just be the list of that player's respective country, otherwise this thread becomes painfully hard to scroll through and find stuff, especially on your phone.

Lincoln Mayorga (wiki) dead at 86.

Apparently this name is "all over Twitter". Not being a loser, I'm not on Twitter. But why can't a single person on here seem to find it? I'd like to know. Ta.

Current or former BBC “star”? I note that Hardeep Singh Kohli is all over the papers this week as more sex pest stories have come about after several more women have come forward… Keeping this chat on topic, Kohli isn’t the type to off himself. Every time he’s exposed for his behaviour, he simply goes quite for a few weeks then carries on as if nothing happened. He hasn’t been abandoned by either the Scottish comedy circuit or the Scot Nat community. I very much get the impression that he gets a huge kick out of exposing himself or shocking women. Like Jimmy Savile once boasted on HIGNFY “I’m feared in every girls school in Britain”, Kohli drops similar hints. Until very recently his Twitter display pic was him wearing a t-shirt that says “weekend offender”.

If she wanted him to do that quicker she should have just changed her pronouns to they/them a few years ago. Newsom is an opportunistic cock. Though I actually think holding her in prison for any longer is pointless. She’s done enough time and she’s no threat to society.

Yes, 5/22. Typo, and yes Eastham and Charlton were the two I was referring to.

Hollywood Reporter obits for: Margia Dean and Betta St. John Interestingly, St. John died in Brighton!

Look at Tamworth in the 2010/15 elections. A lot more marginal. The Tory majority has rocketed there since then, but I don't think you can call anything with a large majority a "safe seat" if it hasn't carried a similar sized majority for at least a decade. You can secure a thumping majority in a seat on the back of several core issues and a successful election campaign/charismatic leader. Doesn't mean that will stick long term within that area, hence I don't think you could call Tamworth "safe". It really isn't. In fact, from knowing Pincher pretty well, he used to always tell me he never took the local Labour Party for granted.

From Politico's morning briefing today: BY-ELECTIONS LOOM: A handful of MPs from the main parties are being dispatched today to the seats holding by-elections on July 20. While Labour is nervous about Johnson’s old Uxbridge and South Ruislip seat (more below), a JL Partners poll of 502 Selby and Ainsty constituents in today’s Yorkshire Post puts Labour on 41 percent and the Tories on 29. Labour MPs who spoke to Playbook this week were as chirpy about the true-blue seat — where Boris Johnson ally Nigel Adams quit — as Tory MPs were downbeat.

Your analysis of Selby and Tamworth is wayyyy off. Agree with the others.

Already reported on here in several places at the time. Also, he's not a "foreign" personality.

Harry Shearer, who is 80 later this year, had a small yet credited role in the film.

Betta St. John (wiki) died on 23rd June, aged 93. Death notice in The Times, probably because of her contributions to the West End in the UK.

Arnaldo Forlani (wiki) dead at 97.

I can't be done with this conversation. You're just too stupid. Sorry.

Then fucking contextualise your posts rather than just copy and pasting articles. Lazy.

Awww RIP.

Ezekiel Guti (wiki) dead at 100.

Margia Dean (wiki) dead at 101. As reported by SAG-AFTRA on Twitter and Instagram.
