    Former Tory minister and government whip Baroness Trumpington has died at the age of 96.

    The peer, who retired from the Lords last year, served in the Department of Health and Ministry of Agriculture in the 1980s and 1990s.

    Seven years ago, footage showing her making a V-sign at a fellow Tory over what she saw as a rude remark about her age went viral online.

    In World War Two, she worked in naval intelligence at Bletchley Park.

    Fluent in French and German, the then 18-year-old worked as a cypher clerk, transcribing messages from German submarines for code breakers.

    They dont make them like that anymore RIP

    Dean Ford, Marmalade front man died at 72... Fabulous voice and some great songs for those of us of a certain age Reflections of a Life seemed appropriate and reminder of what great music was around in the 60's and 70's
