George Lansbury was the Jeremy Corbyn of his day. Very much to the left in the Labour party, he was effectively forced out by the right wing of the party etc etc
Was a real East Ender

"British motorcycle legend and seven-time FIM world champion Phil Read MBE, sadly passed away yesterday (Oct 6th 2022) at the age of 83. The "Prince of Speed" was undoubtedly one of the all time greats in the world of motorcycle sport and between 1964 and 1974 he won seven FIM Bike GP world championships, becoming the first rider ever to win the title in all three classes (125cc, 250cc, 500cc).
In total Read won 52 Grand Prix races and 8 Isle of Man TT races and he was inducted into the MotoGP "Hall of Fame" in 2002. He also won Yamaha's first world championship in 1964 and in this clip he recalls the final races of that history making season in vivid detail."

Shock news.... I was born very young and on the same day as my birthday. How many can say that? Like most, I have absolutely no recollection of when I was born. Where, when, how could be completely made up I like to thibk that I was born in the backseat of a Greyhound Bus, rolling down Highway 41. If not, maybe born on the bayou, born under a bad sign, or born in the USA. |
