I had a bit of success with “Who’s Your Favourite Rabbit in Watership Down?” and Captain Gobbo has inspired me to crank it up a notch.
A few runners….
Genghis Khan
Attila The Hun
Stalin
Adolf Hitler
MussoliniThree more needed for the Dead Eight.
Upon reflection it has to be Genghis Khan for me.
His “Genghis On Tour” invading army would have filled the length and width of the straight mile course at Newbury from Lockinge Start to Winning Post.
What a top banta lad.
If you refused a jab under his regime, you’d be getting a bit more than a needle in the arm.

Honourable mention must go to Robert Peel and John Russell, Prime Ministers during the Great Hunger in Ireland, when 1 million died and 1 million were forced to emigrate.

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"Oh, just clocked the “dead 8”, so unless anyone has popped him off without us
knowing then he’s out. So how about Mao Zedong aka Chairman Mao. Probably the
biggest mass murderer of all time. His “Great Leap Forward” is reckoned to
be responsible for the deaths of 45 Million people. That surely gets him a
few points
Pol Pot is surely right up (or perhaps that should be down) there. The Khmer Rouge were a truly nasty bunch and it makes for some grim reading if you’re not familiar.
I actually meant “Dead Eight” in the each-way three places thieving sense.
Quite a field shaping up now!

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow of Turkmenistan (he’s the incumbent dictator) is a proper nutter. Seems to have been the previous Dictator’s dentist and is now in charge of the country.
https://youtu.be/JsNioEnxeNs – this, uhh, I guess you can call it a song got released.
If you have gone to the trouble of acquiring a nickname such as Ivan the Terrible or Vlad the Impaler, it would be quite disappointing to be omitted from a list such as this.
More welcome additions, gentlemen!
Genghis Khan
Attila The Hun
Stalin
Adolf Hitler
Mussolini

John Russell
Chairman Mao
Pol Pot
Kim Jong-Un
Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow
Ivan the Terrible
Vlad the ImpalerDouble-digit field now – someone’s got to be offering four places on the each-way, even if it is to a fifth the odds!

It's the "Millwall FC" of Point broadcasts: "No One Likes Us - We Don't Care"Timur has to have a shout, seeing as he was responsible for the demise of
17 million souls, around 5% of the worlds population at that time. He was
also a dab hand in the constuction industry, saving materials by cementing
live prisoners into a tower, stacked on top of each other. I suppose everyone’s
got to have a hoby
Some excellent knowledge on this thread of past dictators who kill millions of people.
Sadly the intelligence does not extend to recognising when you yourselves are in the grips of a worldwide dictatorship where billions will be killed.
If any of you lived in the times of these dictators and somebody told you they were going to kill lots of people you would have laughed and called them a conspiracy theorist.
Oh the irony.
