    Political Frailty

    Upon hearing that Jeffrey Titford had died, I had a look at the long list of UKIP leaders. Not updated on his Wiki page (I'll do it now though) but Michael Holmes (wiki), Titford's predecessor and the party's 2nd leader actually died off radar last year aged 85. Source. Their oldest former leader is now Lord Pearson, 82, who fronted the party from 2009 to 2010, and quit the party in 2019.

    Seen Any Good Films Lately?

    Yes. I had my reservations but it gets a thumbs up from me. You never know what you're going to get with Tim Burton. There's "good weird", then there's "only makes sense in the acid-induced dreams of Tim Burton weird". Stayed pretty loyal to the franchise whilst coming up with an existing new storyline (in fact, it was more like 3 storylines in one as it focuses on the 3 generations of women). Winona Ryder, Catherine O'Hara and Michael Keaton all great in their respective roles considering they hadn't played them in 36 years(!) More than can be said of the Star Wars sequel trilogy (fat Mark Hamill, dusty Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher deciding to not even do her British accent anymore for Leia). Ofc some of the original cast are dead (Robert Goulet, Sylvia Sidney and Glenn Shadix), though it would've been hard to put them into this new storyline anyway. Correct call from Burton in leaving Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis out – would've been a huge distraction and I never thought their characters were strong in the first place. Jeffrey Jones obviously didn't return after being convicted of child molestation. So they killed his character off right at the start (gets eaten by a shark) and he appears in the afterlife scenes as a headless torso that just murmurs lol
