Eeeh. Quality.

Harriet Harman's latest initiative to outlaw discrimination against northerners is timely. Not because its' a good idea (it isn't), but because in these difficult times it brings some much-needed hilarity to national political debate.

I always assumed the Arts Council's failure to appoint me Chairman (sorry, Chairperson) was due to some kind of administrative oversight, so it tickles me to discover that it could actually all be down to the fact that I'm from Sheffield.

Equally cheering is this news, reported by the excellent Daily Mash. At last, some long overdue recognition for we downtrodden millions from north of the Trent.

Whatever else you may think of Ms Harman, you've got to admit she's doing her bit to put a smile back on the face of Britain.
