Such a shame that he's on a note that not many of us shall see. A nod to his unseen work maybe?
Agreed, he was gay too, so that will "tick a box". Fantastic genius.I nearly posted in things that annoy you but the BOE is already having to defend not putting a person of colour or a women on it - that makes me so angry - Turing was a genius - people getting on their high horse on behalf of others - well don’t include me yer bloody PC ninnies aaaaargh
The people who like to be offended on behalf of others clearly missed that as most are bloody snowflakesAgreed, he was gay too, so that will "tick a box". Fantastic genius.
It’s ridiculous in this day and age they are not more frequently available and are still looked at suspiciously.I imagine the number of 50s in circulation will increase with the new note. It’s about time they did.

ShowoffYeah I used a €200 note the other day and the cashier didn’t even seem surprised by it.
And you're now offended at their offence. Keeping the circle going.The people who like to be offended on behalf of others clearly missed that as most are bloody snowflakes
It's a beautiful thing, I had a little cry when this was announced.New face of the £50 note is revealed
A fine choice, someone who done so much for this country but was shamefully treated at the time.
That applies to any denomination note in my experience. Try to pay by cash and it's assumed it's counterfeit.It’s ridiculous in this day and age they are not more frequently available and are still looked at suspiciously.
It wouldn't be so bad if there wasn't a £30 limit on contactless payments.Cash will be gone soon. Contactless payments and easy bank transfers will completely kill it off. People are lazy and will always choose the easiest method. I am one of those people.
Over in Italy it’s the complete opposite, even places you’d expect to be respectable are always offering a ‘deal’ if you pay cash as well.
And the ex wife?Also: cash is easy to keep hidden from the tax man.
The fact that coins have not yet been faded out and especially the smaller denominations tells me that cash is here to stay for a little while longer and doubt we’ll see it phased out in our lifetimes.Cash will be gone soon.

Personally, I'd rather have 'A'.
But if you need a shit badly, and nip behind a bush, what will you use to wipe yer arse? A credit card? :emoji_grin:Assuming there’s cash in the account: B by a mile. Lighter, smaller and if it eats nicked/lost I can cancel it and not lose any cash.
