Which was probably the right choice at the time, but when she cropped back up in the news in January it was clear she'd be a QO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I rode her like a rented mule all year 2018, DPs amok ( @Spade_Cooley clear to me all along she would QO regardless). This is the thanks I get. She was my damn discovery. The twat.

Sir Creep 7,070 Posted February 20, 2019 ** hoping a relative sees/reads/reacts to this ^^^ ** I had posted plenty about KL. How she was a fraud for stating all along she was going to get $$ for Germany to get immunotherapy. Then last autumn all was hunky dory, her LOCAL dr had her (temporarily it seems) doing well and blah blah.... even today her JustGiving page opens with she is 'hoping' to go to Germany'. Liar. I DO feel badly for the family and kids who lost a mum, that's terrible. But still goes down in the 'twat' category for me, for the reasons stated etc. SC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,966 Posted February 20, 2019 A bit like Gemma Nuttall, the one with the aid of Kate Winslet. When your cancer is already advanced, immunotherapy can help to give you a few months, but not more than that at the current stage. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Death Impends 7,963 Posted March 18, 2019 Samantha McConnell, who successfully fought the RAF's pension policy so her children would still receive hers after her death, died last week. 11 March specifically per her JustGiving. First DDP hit of the year for Drunkasaskunk. Not the McConnell I wish would die of pancan, but that's life for you. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,438 Posted May 10, 2019 She was a journalist with the Daily Record here for a number of years, I remember her well. Highly dispiriting to see the BBC put that to one side to do the "cancer mum" angle. Her actual career gets 1 throwaway mention. Soapbox... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
