Stephen Hawking: an Obituary.

Stephen Hawking, 1942 – 2009

It’s with sadness that Leftfield has learned of eminent scientist Stephen Hawkings death.

Hawking, who had become famous for writing A Brief History of Time and popularising physics for a new generation, was executed by the NHS half an hour ago.

Health officials say his ongoing health difficulties made him a threat to the state, and spent the £5 needed to save his life to buy a Sainsbury’s meal deal for a Guardian journalist.

The bullet used to execute Hawking was costed at 5p, and has been charged to his family.
