    Ideas And Possibilities For 2018

    The list at one point was not fixed at 50 but this makes it hard to compare years against each other.

    50 I think is a decent enough number.I would say for next year less old people with no serious health issues and more picks like Errol Christie and Joost van der Westhuizen.
  4. I reckon Corbyn is setting himself up to fail unwittingly.Brining back Abbot tying himself in knots over Brexit and talking about requistioning property I think shows that like May pre June 8th he thinks he is untouchable and can say or do anything.

    I think a fair few are as well as Prescott and Skinner.Douglas Hurd Roy Hattersley Norman Tebbit Michael Heseltine Nigel Lawson Sir John Nott Kenneth Baker Ken Clarke Glenda Jackson Shirley Williams Jill Knight Betty Boothroyd Bill Rodgers David Owen David Steel Neil Kinnock Tom King Norman Fowler and Bryan Gould all strike me as very Deathlisty. You can make the argument though that Edward du Cann or Michael Jopling are deathlisty as both where not just backbench MP`s but at shadow cabinet /cabinet level.They would easily get a telegraph and guardian obit even on a slow news day.Hence they have a legitimate claim to notability other than being old and their deaths are expected to be covered by UK media

    Ideas And Possibilities For 2018

    Just realised we have had no British MPs on the list since Healey.An MP no matter how obscure is deathlisty as none can be said to be famous solely for being likely to expire soon and even an insignificant backbench MP from years ago can be expected to be covered in the UK media.

    Olivia De Havilland

    I think it is a deserved honour .Olivia has always been an underated actress in my view.

    He puts me on 11/50 on my shadow list.

    Helmut Kohl

    First big miss of the year by the committee.Sad news but at least he isn`t suffering now.He looked very frail in his final years.
