Then get BT/Openreach/Guberment/EU/Trump/Putin on the case, this needs sorting! Would he have understood Sanskrit? Good question but I doubt it. Languages were much more insular in those days since international travel was more difficult and costly. Ryanair still did hot meals and the tickets were extortionate. How times have changed! |

I understand he was quite adequate at swordfighting and was passable with pointy sticks, in those days that was enough to make yourself understood.

I'm reading now that numerous local authorities have refused to allow Brady's body to be cremated, and this does seem a little odd to me, firstly because until he is cremated, he still exists as a physical entity, and secondly because although I can understand strong sentiment about him coming from individuals, government administrations are not supposed to have "personality", and should be regarding it as simply another dead body which needs to be disposed of by the usual means.

That's a strange one. I would of thought they would if jumped at the chance to burn him and throw the ashes in a skip. The other option to bury him would only lead to his grave becoming some sick tourist attraction. |

Could his body not be auctioned and proceeds given to some useful cause? Could the Army not use his body as target practice?

The problem is straightforward, nobody wants to be involved if someone subsequently scatters the ashes on the moorland.
Right now one team from the Daily Mail will be helping to organise just this while another team waits to be horrified and provide a story for Foxy to link to, probably with pictures of the heartless bastards at the crematorium who enabled the child killing monster to be at rest with his victims.

An opportunity for Delta to dissolve the body and mix it with weedkiller to inject into Japanese knotweed could be forthcoming...

The End............... LINKI doubt it somehow, I imagine his notoriety will last for decades, if not centuries. I've read many comments stating that he should have been hanged (the murders were committed while capital punishment was still a thing, although it had been abolished by the time of his trial) but I don't agree, in large part because he frequently expressed the wish to be allowed to die, and it was therefore imperative that he should have been forced to do the opposite. |
