Stan Gebler Davies

Stanley Gebler Davies (Dublin, 16 July 1943 - Dalkey, Ireland, 23 June 1994) was an Irish journalist with the Irish Independent as well as with various British magazines (including Punch, The Evening Standard, The Daily Telegraph and The Spectator). Of part-Polish and part-Jewish ancestry, Davies was known for his eccentric views and for his exceptional alcohol intake. In the late 1970s the Evening Standard printed his pithy, 50-word apercus among their longer items; he was also permitted to call Hans Keller a 'twat' on the letters pages of The Listener. As well as his writing (which included a book on James Joyce), he engaged in political activity, having been a Unionist candidate for the constituency of Cork South–West (where he was living at the time) in the Dáil election of 1987. He died after a long battle with lung cancer.
