Who would you like to see on the note, and why?

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/sir-david-attenborough-ethical-champions-poll-20-pound-note-jmw-turner-prince-charles-jk-rowling-a7988631.html

It doesn’t necessarily have to be feasible, but the rule is, they must be British (obv).

I personally would go for Attenborough, although it’ll never happen.

No point in picking Prince Charles, by 2020 he might be on the front of it, look odd if he was on both sides! I'd vote for Alan Turing.

Margaret Thatcher may be a tad controversial.... although Churchill amazingly slipped through the politically correct net somehow!

How about Del Boy?

I would personally love to see William Wilberforce on there.

How about some true revolutionary spirits? Thomas Paine or Oliver Cromwell.

Paine was a leading figure in both the American and French revolutions. Cromwell is credited with creating the beginnings of Parliamentary democracy and rightly has a statue outside the Houses of Parliament.

Cromwell seems a good choice. Anyone got a photo of him to use ?

Nothing would please me more than to include Attenborough, although the rule seems to be that you have to be dead first.
