Expressive

I always get a cheap thrill  scanning the tabloids to see who is in for a media kicking.

The Sun is great for a clever pun (my daughter, who was only 6 at the time, still remembers It's Paddy Pantsdown!) and the Express can always be relied to touch those parts that ordinary xenophobes can't reach.

Yesterday's followed the familiar theme of finding something ever more extreme to worry the comfortable and elderly of middle England: the front page screamed Your Home Could Be Stolen (Sunday Express 6 March 2011).

Who makes up this sort of trash?  And, more worryingly, who buys it?
