CRIMINAL IRRESPONSIBILITY

TO allow a climate of lawlessness and vandalism to take hold in a neighbourhood is unforgivable. If people cannot be confident that they are safe in and around their own homes then a basic foundation of civilised life is missing.

PROBABLY the best-known fact about Margaret Thatcher is that she only had four hours' sleep a night. I don't know if that made her the person she was but maybe it did. Recently I've taken to sleeping only four hours a night and I am now totally convinced we should send a task force to the Falklands, though not having a navy to call on I feel at something of a loss.

IS ANYONE surprised that the insatiable Carla Bruni is rumoured to have found sexual sustenance outside the Elysee Palace? She’s the woman who famously remarked: “Monogamy bores me.”

THE preening Portuguese is back, so let me tell you about three incidents for you to make an educated judgment about Jose Mario dos Santos Felix Mourinho.

If Labour wins again all is lost for middle class

SHOULD Labour win the general election, expected on May 6, then it is a racing certainty that Ed Balls will be made Chancellor of the Exchequer on May 7.

Q I have glaucoma and also have cataracts in both eyes. I have been told that cataract surgery for patients with glaucoma is often not successful. I read in the Daily Express of a new treatment for cataracts called Stellaris. Could this treatment help me and how would I get it?

Can you all just calm down and stop yelling?

	Good on the Queen for telling Berlusconi to PIPE DOWN!

THERE are some things in life that just make your heart sink. The prospect of another five years of Gordon Brown, for instance – that’s a major heart-sinker.

ANYONE who enjoys driving will not enjoy being told that they must give up their car keys, not only because they lose the pleasure of driving but also because they lose the mobility that makes life easier in so many ways. For all motorists that day eventually arrives but who is best placed to decide when that time has come? Can we trust drivers, or should his or her GP or ophthalmologist decide for them?

PRINCE William has now made the choice where he wants to spend the next couple of years working as a search and rescue pilot.

WITH a baby due in the next two months and two other kiddywinkles to raise, Claudia Schiffer might want to have a word in the ear of her hubby, film-maker Matthew Vaughn, about the sort of child role models he’s putting on screen.

SHORTLY after Sir Ben Kingsley received his knighthood I reported that there was chatter in showbusiness circles about the actor’s pomposity in insisting on his title being used at all times. Nonsense, retorted the great actor, who said it was a “great accolade” and that everyone was just so happy for him to receive such recognition.

MAYBE all the talk about him being the new George Clooney; the brooding bachelor who has left Jennifer Aniston panting for more, has gone to Gerard Butler’s head (rather than the other parts his female fans might prefer).

MAYBE it’s not surprising that David Cameron has chosen Trevor McDonald to conduct today’s big interview on ITV. After all, Cameron has long held an affection for News at Ten, which Sir Trevor anchored, since the days when he used to watch it at home with his family at their home, the Old Rectory in the Berkshire village of Peasemore.
