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

[Lady Whistledown]

https://news.sky.com/story/on-the-money-who-should-appear-on-the-new-50-11525286

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?

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

I'd go for Turing or Nick Knowles.

 

[Hampden Park]

Jim Bowen obviously = Bullseye = £50

 

[Bakero]

As a lot of fifties help crooks move large amounts of cash easily (allegedly),I nominate the Kray twins.'I will have a Ron & Reg on that' has quite a nice ring to it.

 

[Eric Potts]

Jeremy Corbyn

i'd like it to be Turing, but it'll be a lady to attend to representation issues, so Lovelace as backup vote.
