I saw this one in Private Eye last night.

The most crime-ridden area in England and Wales is in the UK...? Who'd have thought it?
    Posted by JT on 1 Feb 2011.
Clearly that area should be granted independence, making the UK a safer place to live!

Should we perhaps have a "News" category too?
    Posted by JT on 24 Jan 2011.
Yes, I think we should. Hey, Poppy, you got us to create a category, so you can pretend it's yours if you like :)
