“I’m sorry to announce ladies and gentlemen that your scheduled flight to Rwanda has been cancelled indefinitely” is probably one of the few times passengers have been glad to hear such a message. This week and last, we have been treated to a “will they, won’t they” scenario regarding the planned deportation of 130 illegal […]
A bunch of Muslim fanatics is protesting about something. Nothing new there, but what is it this time? A teacher daring to show a cartoon of the Prophet Mohammed? A pig farm in the middle of Bradford? A string of sex shops opening in predominantly Muslim areas, or has someone else written a book suggesting

“Dear me” is all I can say having watched the Platinum Jubilee Concert broadcast from outside Buckingham Palace and the Mall. The highlight was definitely HM The Queen exchanging views on marmalade sandwiches with Paddington Bear. Why she felt the need to do this or got talked into it however remains a mystery. It was
