Baroness King of Bow: Not only do [the legal aid cuts] restrict access to justice but, as we have heard, they specifically remove legal aid from children who are victims of medical accidents or negligence. I find this almost unbelievable. Who in their right mind would think that it was an acceptable idea to remove legal aid from a child who has been disabled for life due to a medical accident or, still worse, negligence?

Apparently Baroness King has not been paying attention. Thanks to the sterling work of the DWP it’s now common knowledge that “disability” is in fact a euphemism for “magic powers”. Would you expect the taxpayer to give you money for having magic powers? It’s time to put a stop to the magic-power gravy train, and by God this government is going to do it.

I know it's one of the more minor questions here (not least, isn't it more likely that the south London firm is actually located somewhere in south London?), but I'm a little unsettled by the notion of "Spay Tans".

And for those unfamiliar with the area, I can confirm that neither Buena Hair nor any kind of tanning salon currently has that prime location on the corner of Parliament Square and Westminster Abbey.
