Flight Lieutenant Alan Pollack who flew a RAF plane under Tower Bridge dies age 89

Sad to hear.

I remember reading about the incident a few years back. What a character. Fair play to him.

Different days, different world...

He thought about it, but he decided it was best to quit politics and focus on looking after his wife. Feeding her her meals, keeping her clean, turning her in bed a couple of times during the night so she didn't get bed sores.

Dunno about his other views but more curbing power of unions would be a damn good thing.

I read his obituary in The Times. He was actually a shop steward at one time, at BOAC. He also flew fighter jets during his military service. But it was his committment to his wife that showed his true colours.

That's a bit harsh, I thought Norman was a decent bloke who had the Countries interest at heart, unlike the soulless ghouls that inhabit Westminster today!

Back in the day I actually followed his advice and 'got on my bike' (car) and toured the country seeking work at a time when contracts we're scarce
