My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

I used to work at a small shop that made little plastic vampires.

There were only 2 of us working there, so I had to make every second count.

I know nothing about Dr Who, but, for Londoners, the phrase "Going For Dinner With Billie Piper" is the absolute best way to remember the order of the vertical streets running east to west in Soho (Greek, Frith, Dean, Wardour, Berwick, Poland) and has saved many a late night out

Training and paying doctors to work in the National Health Service is actually EXACTLY where I want my cash to go as a taxpayer, Wes, and I'll have you out at the next election.

As yet, despite many attempts, the horse remains unstrangled. In related news, pig stacking is at an all-time low.

Great timing, off to see this tomorrow.

Bravo!

Tough call, but I think the first.

We are sad to report that longtime Blue Peter Editor Biddy Baxter has died at the age of 92. We salute a true pioneer, who navigated changing times in the television industry with instinct, tenacity and style.
