No, really!

Former Home Secretary and proto-fascist, David Blunkett is to leave his brain to medical research to help with the prevention of dementia.

Presumably it will be dried out and used as a paper weight. There is no mention as to whether this needs to be done post mortem; it's not as if he uses it for anything useful.

Well whatever use it is put to post mortem will be a significant improvement on the use it was put to prior to death.

I'm suspect they should get to work on him straight away and get on with the science now.

if they got rid of the terrible visage they stick his brain in a goldfish bowl and stick a couple of Cathode tubes on the front and have a whole Brain of Morbius thing going on.

...Might even be able to release his poor old guide-dog sofie who's been forced to leading him into cattle herds and an attenpt to get shot of the daft bugger.

Don't do it, it's what he wants...a human (sort of) brain in a robot body or maybe transplanted into Thatcher before she croaks (you have read The Thing on the Doorstep, haven't you ?)
