Alan Turing To Be On New £50 Note
July 15, 2019 at 9:39 am (This post was last modified: July 15, 2019 at 9:41 am by BrianSoddingBoru4.)
And It's About Bloody Time

Quote:Former Manchester MP and gay rights campaigner John Leech, who campaigned for Alan Turing's pardon, said: "This is a fitting and welcome tribute to a true Manchester hero.

"But more importantly I hope it will serve as a stark and rightfully painful reminder of what we lost in Turing, and what we risk when we allow that kind of hateful ideology to win."
