Breaking news: Andrew Mitchell, the Conservative Chief Whip and protagonist of 'Plebgate', has just resigned. The Curse of Gnome clearly now has a competitor. Sorry, John W., one down, many more to go. Osborne the fare-dodger?

How (un)funny it seems to me that the UK government is cutting everything from spending on the armed forces to benefits for the disabled but the big political row is about whether an MP used the word pleb or not.

Julius Caesar was a pleb. Pompey was a patrician and a lot of good it did him.
