@theroyaleditor @CamillaTominey @dailytelegraph @BBCNews Unfortunately I would suggest that a "Piping Party should be "a party of pipers" and "Boat-Swain" is pronounced 'Bo'sun' - cringeworthy.

@LambethMPS I would suggest that the crowd were only too keen to engage - policing should be without fear or favour and enforce the law, not bowing to the will of mob rule

@MailOnline Funniest thing I’ve seen in a while is your Weekend section’s profile of Charlotte Hawkins’ suggested music in her order of service - “Taco Bell Canon in D”...similar to Pachelbel’s version? Vacancy for a proof reader and sub-editor perchance or classical fast-food?!
