John Rentoul - Dumptygate
Top story in the Sunday newspapers is by my colleague Jane Merrick, about the BBC rewriting Humpty Dumpty so that it ends with all the King's horses and all the King's men who "made Humpty happy again".

This had been spotted by Tom Harris, Labour MP, former transport minister and all round good egg, who was watching CBeebies with his children and who mentions it in his blog about political correctness today

(look down to the poem  as the comment)

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.

Snark by Rentoul so as not to recognize Jane Merrick's real top story, that is probably not to his liking.
