David John Mellor QC (born 12 March 1949) is a former British politician, non-practising barrister, broadcaster, journalist and businessman. As a member of the Conservative Party, he served in the Cabinet of Prime Minister John Major as Chief Secretary to the Treasury (1990–92) and Secretary of State for National Heritage (April–September 1992), before resigning in 1992. He was the Member of Parliament (MP) for Putney from 1979 to 1997.
Since leaving Parliament, Mellor has worked as a newspaper columnist, a radio presenter,after-dinner speaker, served as Chairman of the government's 'Football Task Force', and established a successful career as an international business consultant and entrepreneur.
Born in Wareham, Dorset, Mellor was educated at Swanage Grammar School, and Christ's College, Cambridge, where he was Chairman of the Cambridge University Conservative Association and a contestant on University Challenge. After briefly working for Jeffrey Archer (then a Member of Parliament (MP)) while studying for his bar exams, Mellor became a barrister in 1972 and Queens Counsel in 1987. He has not practised since being elected as an MP and remains "non practising".
David Rogerson Mellor,CBE, FCSD, RDI (5 October 1930 – 7 May 2009) was an English designer, manufacturer, craftsman and retailer.
Regarded as one of the best-known designers in Britain, Mellor specialised in metalwork and especially cutlery, to such an extent that he was often referred to as "the cutlery king". He also produced many other designs throughout his career, including the designs for bus shelters and the traffic light system in use across the UK. Sir Terence Conran has described him as 'Britain's greatest post-war product designer'.
Mellor was born in Ecclesall, Sheffield, where his father was a toolmaker for the Sheffield Twist Drill Company. From the age of eleven, Mellor attended the Junior Art Department of Sheffield College of Art, receiving an intensive training in craft skills. He made his first piece of metalwork – a sweet dish – at this early age.
He studied at the Royal College of Art in London from 1950. Mellor's first cutlery, "Pride", designed while he was still a student, is still in production and included in many international collections. Mellor also studied at the British School at Rome.
David Anthony Mellor is an English semi-professional footballer who plays for Barrow.
Mellor joined Oldham Athletic as sixteen-year-old from Manchester United. However, Mellor suffered a knee injury, but was given a full time two-year scholarships, having initially joined the club on a non-contract basis. After spending time in Oldham's youth team he made his competitive debut during the second match of the 2011–12 season, as a substitute in a Football League Cup match against Carlisle United. He scored sixteen minutes into his Football League debut on 16 August in a match against Scunthorpe.
On 28 August 2011 The People reported that Premier League Fulham manager Martin Jol was preparing a bid for teenager Mellor after scouts were impressed with his strength and maturity. Nothing came of this report however, and he remained at Oldham by signing his first professional contract with the club, keeping him until 2013. In October 2011, Oldham Athletic rejected a bid for Mellor from an un-named club, which the club's captain Dean Furman was urgent for Mellor to stay at the club. However, Mellor's form at Oldham Athletic soon slumped because of family reasons and his own injury concern, though Mellor made his return to the first team against Carlisle United on the final game of the season. Despite the issues, Mellor made 21 appearances at the end of the season.
Black Comedy is a 2014 Hong Kong fantasy comedy film directed by Wilson Chin. It starred Chapman To, Wong Cho-lam and Kimmy Tong.
Johnny Du Kei-Fung (Wong Cho-Lam) is a Hong Kong detective who dreams of becoming a member of the exclusive G4 Team that protects the city's Chief Executive (Patrick Dunn). Johnny is deemed too short for the team and his application is denied. At home, Johnny is bullied by his girlfriend Angel (Kimmy Tong) as weak and unsuccessful.
Johnny meets Vincent (Chapman To), who offers him three wishes in exchange for his soul. His first wish is to be pursued by a beautiful woman, whom Vincent delivers in the form of "Juicy" (also played by Kimmy Tong). Johnny soon discovers that Juicy is indiscriminately passionate, which makes him concerned about possible infidelity. In response, Johnny uses his second wish to turn Juicy into the innocent and unfailingly loyal QQ. He soon discovers, that QQ is unintelligent and is the daughter of triad figure Brother Drill (Tommy Wong), a coincidence that leads the police to believe he is a triad mole.

David Mellor (born 1949) is a British former politician, broadcaster and football pundit.
David Mellor may also refer to:
David (Bulgarian: Давид) (died 976) was a Bulgarian noble, brother of Emperor Samuel and eldest son of komes Nicholas. After the disastrous invasion of Rus' armies and the fall of North-eastern Bulgaria under Byzantine occupation in 971, he and his three younger brothers took the lead of the defence of the country. They executed their power together and each of them governed and defended a separate region. He ruled the southern-most parts of the realm from Prespa and Kastoria and was responsible for the defence the dangerous borders with Thessalonica and Thessaly. In 976 he participated in the major assault against the Byzantine Empire but was killed by vagrant Vlachs between Prespa and Kostur.
However, there's also another version about David’s origin. David gains the title "comes" during his service in the Byzantine army which recruited many Armenians from the Eastern region of the empire. The 11th-century historian Stepanos Asoghik wrote that Samuel had one brother, and they were Armenians from the district Derjan. This version is supported by the historians Nicholas Adontz, Jordan Ivanov, and Samuil's Inscription where it’s said that Samuel’s brother is David. Also, the historians Yahya and Al Makin clearly distinguish the race of Samuel and David (the Comitopouli) from the one of Moses and Aaron (the royal race):

And signed no doubt with one of Hancock’s trade-mark pencils with a rubber to avoid any unwanted embarrassment. Hooray for the stationery cupboard- a variant on the Tardis because clearly in the past another minister of culture (Hancock was minister of culture in 2018) had used it.

The grim reality has taken a twisted turn in favor of
those who stand unapologetic
Fanatics attack the structures of society –
Preserving their faith as champions of morality
Performing God’s work on earth
What if we let ourselves be held hostage to the
rhetoric of irreconcilable values?
Hypocrites profound, denouncing all in their way
Poisoning children’s minds to maintain their position
through moral retribution reproducing lies
The irony is as real as it is tragic – religious
zealots mobilize to bring on the second coming
Their strain of fascist idealism meticulously designed
to advance their own salvation (Ignite a war!)
And is the end result holier than the means?
A pathetic attempt to restore some human dignity?
Paradox of democracy, allowing those whom seek to
destroy it to exert their claims as we stand by and
tolerate it as faith…
Sic Transit Gloria Mundi
We’re all in the same boat that barely floats
Yet true believers drive to see us drown
Fighting evil with evil – we choose replicate
History has a sordid-way of repeating itself
Why can we never see this for ourselves?
Delusions of grandeur, since when did God represent
peace and love?
Throughout the ages minions legitimized enemies shall
pay with blood
Conformed rationale – self-righteous response
Judge they’d rather see the world burn, than the fully
of what they believe
Waiting for their prayers to be heard and observed
Manipulating the highest quarters of political power
Arrogance, ignorance, in such lethal combination
Blind adherence to these words has come to signify…
How enmeshed we are in lies – Odium by default
Until the End
Programmed to the hate
Awaiting godsend
As the world’s wars join as one
