It was right for the court to uphold the celebrity injunction

Will Gore is right, there is no good reason other than salacious prying for us to know the identity of PJS.

I do not want to know his identity and will not look for his name online. However if this injunction is lifted his name will be all over the media and I, and many others like me, will be told his identity.

I believe the tabloid press only want to get this injunction lifted to sell papers and not for any genuine desire to inform the public of some important information.

The courts should be encouraged to maintain these injunctions where there is no genuine reason why these people's names and activities should not be kept private.

In criticising Iain Duncan Smith’s position on the EU referendum, Michael Heseltine says: “It is always good to hear voices from the past. I would be grateful if they stayed in the past.” Quite.

Mr Heseltine himself recently elevated the debate to a new level, when interviewed in the New Statesman. He claimed that Mrs Thatcher “would have vote Remain”. Sadly, it has not been possible to confirm this.

Further, he claimed that it is inevitable that Britain will eventually join the Euro. I suspect that it is more likely that I will be the first person to cycle to the moon.

Nicola Sturgeon says she intends to oppose a British Bill of Rights. So much for her claim of taking a more open minded and consensual approach in this new term of the Scottish Parliament. Within a couple of days she forgets all that, dismissing the UK government’s idea in advance, claiming it will weaken "human rights protections" before she has even seen the detail of what is proposed.

Perhaps her opposition has less to do with the "Rights" element of the proposed Bill but more with the "British" part. For Nicola Sturgeon and the SNP it is unthinkable to agree with anything that has "British" in its title, so it is simply dismissed out of hand.

Our new First Minister was taught by Alex Salmond to use any dealings with the UK government primarily as an opportunity for political grandstanding. A shame the SNP cannot approach something as fundamental as human rights with a more measured and honest approach.

Because of limited resources, I butter my breakfast toast only Mondays to Fridays; the weekend toast is unbuttered. Were I to have 7-day buttering, the weekdays would be more thinly spread, butter-wise.

Jeremy Hunt constantly told us that the proposed junior doctors’ contract for a 7-day NHS was cost neutral. The BMA, in effect, made the buttering point: doctors and other staff would be spread more thinly across the week, therefore without any greater overall care. So, what has changed, such that the BMA now recommends the latest deal?

Is patient safety overall no longer threatened? Or is it simply that the misleading mantra of "7-day NHS" has such powerful political clout that good sense and good reasoning are silenced?

On a first visit to Japan last year I was impressed that as far as we observed every single station on the vast Tokyo Metro system has immaculate and thoughtfully designed public toilets, with shelves for bags and parcels, handrails for the elderly, etc.

Toilets on the London Underground system, apart from those at mainline stations, are now virtually non-existent. Indeed some have disappeared with the recent spate of station redesign. With the growing number of elderly travellers this is a real issue.

Brits (and Brexiters not least) are fond of boasting about many aspects of life in the UK, without in many cases having the least idea about how much better some things (although certainly not all) are done abroad. Often we seem to import the worst aspects of foreign cultures whilst being unwilling to learn from the best.

Politicians now question whether parliamentary expenses have been used appropriately by Stewart Hosie and Angus MacNeil, SNP MPs, both alleged to have conducted extramarital affairs with journalist, Serena Cowdy.

So let's just get this right before the SNP's army of spin doctors sets to work: Nicola Sturgeon is fond of implying if you criticise the nationalist party, you're not a true Scot.

So are opposition parties talking down Scotland? Of course not. They're asking pertinent questions about how senior members of the SNP use tax payers' cash.

Boris Johnson has emerged as the de facto voice of Brexit. He is still not taken seriously by many as a politician of any standing and is widely believed to have chosen his allegiance solely on the basis of furthering his personal ambitions. Voters will not buy this.
