Just imagine one of our US pals, not aware of UK politics, stumbling across that last description for Ashcroft! :lol:#

 

He has bouts of lousy health and a crippling allergic reaction to tax.

Good to know we're not the only country with kooky politicians.

Number 3 on the list, Babiker Awadalla, apparently died last year according to a recent update on his wikipedia page. Here is the article they use as source.

Babiker Awadalla is back like a X-Files villain. He lives in Dublin and is in good health.

Sitting down for an evening's entertainment watching the 1955 general election coverage and caught this brilliant moment when two elderly ladies pushed forward going "let the woman speak" to the report after he asked 4 men for their opinion.

One of Major's "bastards" Bill Walker, former Tory MP for Perth and East Perthshire and thereafter Tayside North, has died aged 88. http://www.heraldscotland.com/opinion/15343475.Obituary___Bill_Walker__Scots_Tory_MP_who_lost_his_seat_in_1997_wipeout/

 

Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Walker_(Scottish_Conservative_politician)

 

Edit: Probably not a bastard actually but definitely a rebel on Maastricht - he was stretchered down for the vote by Bill Cash.

Can you please put the list in a spoiler, that's a ton of scrolling you have to go through. 

I refer the Honourable Gentleman to posts like these which seem to occur after every death on the DDP.https://forums.deathlist.net/topic/9009-derby-dead-pool-2017/?do=findComment&comment=311766

 

I shall however consider your request, after consultation with my coalition partners.

Part Three: I've restricted this to 75-79 because life is just too short! If Anyone wants to do 70-74, feel free and also let me know if you think I've missed anyone as I've just used Deathray's template and not checked whether there have been new MPs aged 75+ elected in the last three years (you never know....)

 

 

Good work YW. Interesting to see that a fair number have gone in just three years.

He was shot at baseball practice.  Looks like you and I are reporting the same incident ZZL.  First reports said people shot, second report named Scalise.
He's an ultra-conservative Trump kiss-ass, so he deserved a little hot lead in his life.  Sorry for the biased commentary.

@YoungWillz - Checked your list off my records to 1927 (time, and so many people!) - but once I noted some age differences*, 1 people missing so far... (not including Ted Graham, who I found right as I about to post reply...)

 

Jim Callaghan (b. 1927) - Labour MP 1974-97 for Heywood and Middleton (previous Middleton and Prestwich).

 

Good showing though - pointed out a few folk who had escaped my attention as having died.

 

*Mine come off HoC paperwork, however they openly note some early DOBs can be inaccurate, and some change between drafts!

Reports initially said it was at his home. Then it was changed to baseball practice with his staffers.

Dang I just assumed that was the former PM! I'll reinstate.

 

I changed a few DoB's in line with Wiki like a fool.

Oh I assumed some of the DOBs might have been corrected - the 2017 edition isn't out yet.

 

The Lancashire Jim Callaghan and the famous one were in the HoC at the same time, for the same party.
