#LaurenceFox will probably sue for libel if called the lowest form of scum known to humanity. But truth is a complete defence in libel claims.

As a teenager, the 11 O'Clock Show, which catapulted Ricky Gervais and Ali G to stardom, was one of my favourite things on TV. As you can imagine, I was pretty chuffed to get an endorsement for my debut novel from Daisy Donovan! Freebourne is available here www.collectiveinkbooks.com/clk.html?c=6...

Where other councils have closed #libraries in the face of #austerity, I'm proud that not only has Hounslow kept all our libraries open, we're enhancing them into Community Hubs where residents can come and get vital advice and services. And borrow a book. The first new hub opened yesterday.

The Prince of Wales visited Gunnersbury Park in Hounslow yesterday to unveil the world's first memorial to humanitarian aid workers killed in the line of duty. I was pleased to hear Prince William and other speakers condemn the killing of aid workers in Gaza and conflicts around the world.
