I have to say some of the canvas bags are very good . Compared to when this was first introduced they have managed to make some very big canvas bags because one of the bug bears when the bag charge was first introduced in Scotland and Wales those bags where quite small.

I've found that Iceland's foldaway reusable bags are excellent quality - they're really reasonable too at 75p each

They are very good those fold away bags. Very handy if your on foot and passing the shop. Also great for cats to sleep in.

This was staged, nobody killed

Many people thought it was a terrorist attack like 7/7 and locals claiming they wasn't told of the staged explosion even though the bridge had been closed.

Its a bit of a sensitive subject because it involved a red London bus. The pictures I have seen do make it look quite bad but as you said it was staged , but more could be done to alleviate locals concern by explaining to them better what they intended to do .

Alternatively it could be animated and the upset it may cause would massively drop

A member of Winston Churchill's personal flight crew during World War Two has died aged 97.

Air Commodore John Mitchell was the navigator on the prime minister's personal aircraft, called Ascalon.

He and the rest of the crew flew Churchill, codenamed "The Owner", to the Yalta and Tehran conferences.

I do wonder down the line how many other newspapers will go down the digital line .

The minute the internet became available on Smartphones newspapers news was always going to be outdated , newspapers where then going to have yesterdays news in them .
