Quotes of the day

"A Paedo in EVERY Wheelie Bin"

"Great Ormond Street Hospital to Get Statue of Myra Hindley"

"On the Anniversary of Enoch's Death, Our City Centres Shudder to Loud, Rhythmic Music. Is It Too Late for 'Great' Britain?"

Continuing the recent Daily Heil theme, here are a few inspired suggestions for their "front page headlines-in-waiting". Given that this rag is a horrible self-parody already, expect them - or something like them - to be gracing the newsstands shortly.

And on the subject of lists, how's about an altogether fluffier one: a compendium of cats and dogs who've gained diplomas, degrees and other qualifications. Sample quote: "Ben Goldacre, a UK-based doctor and science journalist, wrote in 2004 of obtaining a diploma in nutrition from the American Association of Nutritional Consultants for his cat, Henrietta, while investigating allegations about the qualifications claimed by Gillian McKeith. Although the cat has passed away, Goldacre claims to have kept the certificate on display in a toilet".
