[Finance] "Public to nominate" who should appear on the new £50 note

[Pretty pink fairy]

FFS. Hasn’t the British voting public done enough damage already? Now there’s going to be a stupid character on the bank notes?

William Joyce ??

Apparently Arlene Foster is going to get the casting vote anyway, and has chosen Ian Paisley.

 

[lawros left foot]

Oh.

Fair enough. I second the nomination of Tommy Robinson.

The original, and still the best.

Boaty Mac Boat Face let's have another go at the people's voice must be heard

 

[NooBHA]

I'd put Jose Mourhino on it.

Because it woould be easy to spot the fakes because Nobody would want them

Another vote for Turing as it would go a small way to making up for the shameful way he was treated. Before we start preaching about barbaric other cultures, just bear in mind it is just 66 years since this great man was chemically castrated and was possibly driven to suicide.

Voted Stephen Hawking as there was no David Attenborough option

Suggestions put forward by SkyNews include:

-Princess Diana
-Margaret Thatcher
-David Bowie
-Emmeline Pankhurst
-Sir Stephen Hawking
-Ada Lovelace
-Mary Wollstonecraft
-Alan Turing
-Isambard Kingdom Brunel
-Agatha Christie
-Bruce Forsyth (!)

These all appear to be genuine suggestions I accept the claims of a few of those, but the idea of having Brucie on a fifty quid note sounds like somebody at SkyNews is taking the piss. Plus, allowing the British public to vote can only result in disaster. The list of nominations would be horrific.

Who would you vote for?

Edna it should be you as the Queen. That will fool them.

Freedom fighter Tommy Robinson

Looking at the original list, I've realised there must be a rule that says it has to be somebody who's dead, which unfortunately rules out Robbie Williams.

Not necassarily.

 

[looney]

A Dalek, i want a Dalek on the £50 note.

Ian Paisley or Margret Thatcher.

Not satisfied with posting completely and utterly unproven hearsay and being made to look silly in the process (and you were) youte now wishing someone dead , arent the tories supposed to be the nasty ones ?

Those nasty lefties have so much hate, to wish someone was dead is just another example of what they really are like.

It's got to be Maggie, to have her face nestling up against my manhood for hours on end, is just a dream come true.

 

[Garage_Doors]

John Lydon

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

Jim Slip.
With just his shirt and tie on.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

why do i always feel like a w*nker after ive been nasty to you ( yes i know , because i am one to pre-empt all the comedians on here )

Don't worry about it. Banter.....

 

[golddene]

Brunel for me out of Edna's "authentic" list, Glenn obviously, in the poll !

 

[Knocky's Nose]

John Lydon

The new £50 note would need to be the size of the 'Daily Mirror' in that case...
