RIP Roy Burnham

This man’s dad is dead.

Andy Burnham

I did not need a reminder that the name Roy is for very old people and very seldom given to men younger than myself.

I did – in my lifetime – meet Roys younger than me, but they’re not much younger and they are very are.

Roy Burnham has passed on, but not before seeing his son winning high honours and before enough scandals render him another “former PM”.
