Since when has asylum seeker become synonymous with criminal?
Sky News interviewed people in Inverness about a proposed camp. Their comments are nonsense and unchallenged by the reporter.

At least he will now be able to go to Pizza Express without people pointing and saying "look! There's Prince Andrew, Duke of York".

Overheard my 7 year old telling her mates how annoyed she gets that the council switch off all internet at 7pm every night. They looked at her confused but didn't correct her. Not sure how much longer I can sustain this lie.

Normal family? She was abused by her father.

Powerful and moving interview with Virginia Giuffre's brother Sky and sister-in-law Amanda:

"He's just Andrew. He's no longer a prince... This normal girl, from a normal family, has taken down a prince. We are so proud of her."

"She was extraordinary. She did the extraordinary."

Every year on #Halloween we carve a #Pumpkin from our collection of Penguin Books. 🎃

We're up to our elbows here in juicy plots and seedy characters. Luckily there's not much pulp fiction. 🎃

A halloween cartoon for @newscientist.com

Image: three figures in protective suits watch from behind a screen as a child approaches a door-like mechanical structure in which stands a man. Between them is an amorphous glowing shape.

Caption: Scientists at the institute of halloween studies have succeeded in creating "The treak": a quantum state that is simultaneously trick and treat. It is stable for a millionth of a second before decaying into a half-hearted prank and a mediocre candy bar.

If you laid all the sweets, made by Wakefield District's Haribo factory for Halloween, in a line, you'd have enough to give every child in Great Britain type 2 diabetes.

Just write Dire Rear. Comes to the same thing.

I'm a GP. I'm not confident that I know how to correctly spell diarrhoea without having to look it up, which in front of a patient is awkward. So I just wrote in the patient's notes "got the shits".
