Death Impends 7,979 Posted March 31, 2020 On 28/03/2020 at 03:34, drol said: Former Somalian PM Nur Hassan Hussein seriously ill in London with COVID-19. At 83 and already receiving treatment abroad for other health issues, he may become the first head of government to fall to COVID.... Instead of Hussein, this dubious distinction falls upon former Congolese President/Prime Minister Joachim Yhombi-Opango. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Few of them have gone public with it. Sharma used to be my MP when I lived in west London. Fucking useless doesn't quite cover it. He was totally invisible. Momentum almost got him binned last year and I wish they had succeeded. Still, I wouldn't wish any harm to come of the man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
