From the Socialist Courier blog:
In a sensational High Court ruling a bequest to the Conservative Party was declared as invalid because the donor was mentally unfit at the time. "Bratislav Kostic, a pharmaceutical tycoon from Ealing, West London left his entire fortune to the Tories after claiming that Margaret Thatcher could save the world from a satanic plot. (London Times, 16 October)
Overlooking the obvious conclusion that the Tory Party are an unprincipled money-grabbing outfit that are prepared to do a family out of their mentally handicapped fathe''s will, there still remains a mystery. "Mr Kostic died aged 80 in 2005, leaving £8.3 million, which is now understood to have grown to nearer £10 million." How did £8.3 million grow to nearly £10 million. It took Mr Kostic 80 years to amass his £8.3 million fortune, yet after his death it had increased by £1.7 million in only 2 years.
The answer to that mystery is not to be found by Mr Holmes at Baker Street, but from the works of Mr Marx of Highgate Cemetery.
