That if we must have a £50 note, not have Margaret Thatcher on it?

Just that.

It’s going to be a scientist isn’t it?

But I thought they were going to put a scientist on it?

We already have a £50 note

She was a scientist, she was involved in the team that invented soft scoop ice cream.
Still don't want her on fifty pound notes, though.

She was a scientist before she was a politician. She was involved in developing Mr Whippy ice cream, allegedly!

I’d let her be on a £50 note. Whatever you think of her politics, she certainly blazed a trail.

Haha, x post with Blossom!

Don't we have one already, they're a bugger to get rid of. a customer used to pay my dd with them.

Why not, it doesn't make any difference to me who they put on the £50 note, I'm never going to see them!

She’s entitled to be on the long-list due to her pre-political work but is unlikely to make the short-list when they start to tighten the criteria.

Favourites are Stephen Hawking, Ada Lovelace, Alan Turing and Roslind Franklin who had her work used by Watson, Crick and Wilkins and never given her due credit when they won the Nobel Prize for discovering the DNA double helix
