Sorry, I’m nearly a month late, but better late than never to have mourned his passing. A lovely Guardian obit here. A couple of nice letters here. Full text of Hungarian Tragedy here. I note that Chris Brooke has not yet added him to the DSW. A further note for Oxford-connected people — this Peter Fryer is no relation to the Pete Fryer who works for Unison (nor, interestingly, the late Bobby Fryer of Bobby Fryer Close. The Healyites just had lots of Fryers, I guess).

I hadn’t realized that the black history Peter Fryer was the same as the Hungarian revolution Peter Fryer.

Harry – thanks for this: I’ll stick him in the database for the Dead Socialist Watch now, and, with luck, he’ll be suitably commemorated on the appropriate anniversary (if I remember to post anything that day).

Nor the Peter Fryer of the Uni of Brum, who is – appropriately – a food engineer.
