Exits that would please public

From: Peter Hyde, Kendale View, Driffield.

Blank cheque

From: G Ellison, Hawthorn Avenue, Dronfield.

Let’s hope that our political ruling elite will take heed of two recent events on TV. The wife of the Speaker became the first celebrity voted out of the Big Brother house. And now Edwina Currie becomes the first celebrity voted off Strictly Come Dancing.

Politicians beware: the serfdom you so merrily walk over are telling you something!

Miles of money

From: Jeremy Kilner, Choppards Mill, Holmfirth.

If Mervyn King were to print this £75bn as five pound notes, he would need about six square miles of paper. This is an area some 200 yards wide that would stretch from Leeds to Middlesbrough.
