I doubt it very much.

Does it count if someones political career has just died, following David Blunketts resignation form the government again today?

I smell desperation!

He might be suicidal, after all he has lost two jobs, two mistresses and one child that he thought was his in the last year.

 

Fact for the day: David Blunkett's father died after falling in to a vat of boiling water.

Thing is... how many times will it die?

Anyone watching Newsnight's disection of today's event?

 

Looks to me that Alistair Campbell's had a few...

Blunketts career isn't dead, it's resting.

Do you think he could be pining for Sheffield?

[Star Crossed 33]

Come on people, don't get my hopes up.

 

I read "David Blunkett RIP", I think "Ah, some justice at last", and then I read the thread and find out it's just another job shuffle for the lying, conniving c*nt. Can we close this thread until he actually dies, please?

I doubt he'll die anytime soon. He's too much of an egotist. Then again, maybe he'll take ill advised high profile work just to stay in the public eye. You know, like the 'Star in the Reasonably Priced Car' item on Top Gear.

 

Wouldn't want to be a cameraman on that day.

Didn't Top Gear do that last year, a blind man in the Reasonably Priced Car?

David Blunkett has been injured after he was attacked by a cow.

David Blunkett has been injured after he was attacked by a cow.

 

He should have looked where he was going.

 

Sorry, resistance was futile.

 

 

Edit - just went to read the article and it would appear that the NFU representative was aptly named:

 

"The best thing to do is to let the dog off the lead so it can run away because obviously a dog can run faster than you," she said.

 

"The next thing to do is to get quite quickly to the edge of the field, collect the dog and leave."

 

What a Pratt, the dog was attached for a reason. Last I heard we didn't have wireless dogs for the blind. Yet another case of foot in mouth in the farming community.

Ah, but if Mr Blunkett had been more forward thinking he would have had a Guide horse which he could have ridden to safety.

Suffers a fall whilst boarding a train.

 

The article also mentions a recent heart attack which requires him to take blood thinners.

Just checked his Wiki and he's 78 next year, to my surprise.

Including the current Home Secretary, there are 18 living individuals who have held that office. Almost enough for a DDP theme team!

Half of them are aged 70+... Douglas Hurd (94), Kenneth Baker (90), Ken Clarke (84), Michael Howard (83), Jack Straw (78), David Blunkett (77), John Reid (77), Charles Clarke (74), Alan Johnson (74). I wouldn't be surprised if we lost a couple of these by the end of 2025.

Both Ken Clarke and Charles Clarke (no relation to our non-British friends) have always struck me as prime heart attack territory. Douglas Hurd has lasted a long time... 95 in March, not seen in public anymore. Should be on the Deathlist next year.

[Deathrace 1,170]

John Reid also struck me as someone who I didn't expect to see old bones. 77 is practically 97 for a former chain smoker from his part of the World. 

[Deathrace 1,170]

I saw Michael Howard walking down the street about two weeks ago with his wife who also still looks good for her age. He looked fine but he's at an age where he could go into decline fairly quickly.

Are yoiu certain it was his wife and not a call girl or other lady of the night? You know the type - something of the night about her?
