Close the book on Katie Price

Katie Price on a recent trip to Ibiza

Katie Price on a recent trip to Ibiza

It seems Katie Price has a new book out.

How do I know? Because the tabloids have been plastered with pictures of her holding copies of Sapphire — wot she rote wiv a ghost writer — while dressed charmingly in a spangly (fake) sapphire encrusted leotard.

This is no doubt destined to become THE number one best-seller in such high-brow literary establishments as Tesco and Asda, (although it is already half-price at Waterstones ? can’t think why) and will no doubt feature there for many months to come alongside the words and wisdom of other literary luminaries such as Coleen Rooney and Sharon Osbourne.

I for one hope never to have to read it simply because, well, she’s appalling, basically.

A quote from the brilliant American wit, Dorothy Parker, springs instantly to mind: “This is not a book one can put down lightly. It should be thrown with great force!”

His may not exactly be a household name. But in unionist politics (small u — and large) Alex Kane has long been a central figure.

Why the deal isn’t the final piece of devolution jigsaw

The agreement on the devolution of policing and justice is probably the biggest con since snake oil vendors were in their pomp.

Why life in the wild isn’t really Garden of Eden

Animals, eh?.... What are they about? We can't live with the big, fierce ones, and we can't live without the little, cuddly ones.

Take a cue from amazing Grace and slap the cuffs on Tony Blair

What a joy it is in these dour times to be able to exalt the name of Grace McCann. No relation, unfortunately.

Cost of pay freezes and high taxes was a culture of duplicity, envy and hypocrisy

The Chancellor was right yesterday to dismiss the idea of a High Pay Commission. His phraseology was characteristically mild: he was "not persuaded" of his merits.
