Ian Brady would be a popular choice, barring that then Katie Hopkins
In a rare case, the longer he lives in prison the better, he's been wanting out for a long time now and he would welcome death.

What a horrible thread.

It fascinates me how strongly people dislike Geldof. He wrote three of my favourite songs of all time, is a wonderful interviewee and a great humanitarian. Those of us who were around and young in 1985 will always remember Band Aid and Live Aid fondly for the sense of unity and hope they gave us. In retrospect, there was much about it that was naive and crass, but its, and his, heart were absolutely in the right place.
I don't get it either. You must really hate someone to wish death on them. Even if some think Sir Bob is a bit of a tosser, it takes an incredibly sad person to care so much that they want him dead.

He's done a lot of good for charity. I wonder if the OP can say the same.

Let's hope ste that if you are unfortunate enough to suffer a family member dying this year no one will come on here and cheer.

More tasteless threads...
I did a similar thread to this which was far from distasteful. And it was closed down

it's got to be someone, if Bob is the first then that's giving another celeb a chance of a bit more life

He's never been the same since he was made redundant from that chip shop.

My mate saw him recently stacking shelves in Tesco, so I think he's doing ok.

Well he had a bit of a Blue Christmas that year, but he realised that as his age, it's pretty much Now or Never and he picked himself up and walked his Blue Suede Shoes down to Tescos.

That story is 100% true.

Trump being assassinated must have a very high probability - except that he'd be replaced by Mike Pence.

That's a thoroughly vile thing to say, even if you meant it as a joke.

Bob Geldof: there is a big difference between public Geldof and private Geldof
He was in it to see how much he could make out of it and he also took the all the praise where as others did more with less publicity, IMO how bizarre it is that people like Geldof who happen to be very wealthy are asking the GP to give any extra cash to charity.

And you have to wonder how much they give?
