Columnist Comments
• Howard Jacobson: Why worry is the least of my concerns
If the terror threat is lowered, that’s because we’ve lowered it. Worry is part of our genetic inheritance
• Andrew Grice: Ed Miliband is in for a long wait
I would be surprised now if it coalition doesn't survive until the election date.
• Christina Patterson: Not all families are created equal.
Our politicians, as we know from their Tourette's-like assertions on the subject, are extremely keen on families.
