I might also try and keep an eye out for those who may need to go because of nefarious deeds and who quit for other jobs

And things were going so well....

Most of the cast of Cheers are still with us... George Wendt anyone?

Well that was unexpected but we pick ourselves up and start again, so I present to you By-Election Bingo II (2017-22) with increased picks. Just pick 50 MPs who you think might depart their seat before 2022 and I will keep score Death = 30 points Crimianl activity - 20 points Resignation - 10 points (reducing to 5 if they defect and regain their seat) The will be 10 point bonuses for unique picks and a 25 point bonus for the by-elction that wipes out the majority of the governing party and 50 point bonus if the by-election results brings down the government. Be warned this will try our patience as you will need to invest 5 years to play (but we thought that last time). PM me with your teams from June 9 onwards. I will give you until 30 June to have them all lined up. Lets see if we can get more players this time.

I think we need more than Decimation that would only remove about 36

Wikipedia has now locked his death in. There looks like there was an obituary in The Stage but nothing elsewhere.

Will be interesting to see who gets most votes now.

Just the one?

Labour

I was at the polling station shortly after 7am. Brisk business despite still being dark.

Yes Nolan was my least likely to go so should be my 25 pointer. Sorry for any confusion

Well he did support UKIP

Next on my list

There was no time for jokes in the end days

The incident yesterday with Boris Johnson, the mobile phone and the 4 year old Yorkshire lad could be as significant as the moment in 2010 when Gordon Brown was overheard on mic describing a bigoted old lady as bigoted. Did that cost him the election?

Please note to avoid confusion for British posters this thread is not about our current Prime Minister

Thanks for the reminder. I will sort my team out in the next week or so.

Bravo @Sean. All the best and thanks for stepping up. I will play.

It is with great reluctance that I have decided not to run a 2019-2024 By-election Bingo game. There are a couple of reasons one is pressure of work and the second is that I am genuinely terrified of the result on Friday. I am happy if someone wants to take the format and would play but I will not have time to compile the game. Very sorry.

You have my list. A revised version of my Shadow List to remove those names that are my own personal picks and not likely to get committee support

Couple of thoughts on this: Are we sure the person with the Dickpic profile is not Prince Andrew? The Queen's actual Death would play merry hell with the General Election Do so many guests come on here because are bullshit detectors are finely tuned?
