Following the success of their Tart London catering company, established in 2012, Jemima Jones and Lucy Carr-Ellison have just released their debut cookbook – ‘A Love of Eating: Recipes by Tart London’. Featuring over 100 new recipes, the book features dishes spanning from breakfasts to simple one-pot dishes, through to salads and vegetable-focussed dishes and, finally, desserts. These are all complete with a prominent focus on menu planning (as outlined towards the beginning of the book) and honest, full-flavoured food. Accompanying these...
A worrying new report has highlighted how Tory cuts have caused a crisis in homelessness among young people. The documents discovered that delays in supplying Universal Credit payments on time were forcing people onto the streets, in desperation. With no access to welfare payments they have no option but to sleep on the streets, or in refuges supplied by charities. According to the survey carried out by Homeless Link, a charity that works with homeless people, over ninety per cent...
These adorable photographs show harvest mice playing around and climbing on branches of wheat and flowers in the spring sunshine. The eight mice, which are a mere three to five cm long, are owned by amateur photographer Alex Meek, 31, who loves his furry friends like his very own family. He said that the little rodents are hard to find in the wild so shot the photographs in his conservatory on last year's wheat stalks. Alex said: "People absolutely love...
A midwife who was sacked for taking too many sick days has won an employment tribunal - and will be heading back to WORK. Jane Greaves, 46, was sacked from Wakefield Pinderfield's Hospital after contracting a kidney infection at work because the birthing centre didn't have a staff toilet. She said low staffing levels meant she was unable to leave the unit to go to the toilet, which is a two-minute walk away in another department. Her dismissal was described...
If you had been watching films as they were released in 1993, there must have been a fairly jarring moment when, within days of each other, The Sandlot and This Boy’s Life were released. As we discussed last week, The Sandlot idealises and romanticises growing up in the America of the early 60s. It’s about growing up over a summer, building a group of friends and overcoming some of the common challenges of being a kid. The subject matter of...
An extraordinary personal collection of art and antiques is set to sell for ONE BILLION DOLLARS - with the entire proceeds going to charity. Works by the likes of Picasso, Monet and Matisse are highlights of what is being dubbed the most significant philanthropic auction ever presented. The 1,550 art pieces were collected by Peggy and David Rockefeller, from one of the USA's most famous families. Peggy passed away in 1996 and David, a billionaire banker, died last year aged...
Shocked onlookers have told of the moment “all hell broke loose" in a posh spa town when up to 40 suspected football hooligans had a mass brawl. Children as young as 12 are believed to have been involved in the fight - with reports of green smoke canisters being thrown and men wearing balaclavas. The violence, which took place on Saturday at the Promenade in Cheltenham, is thought to have been linked to the ‘El Glosico’ football match between local...
As Western leaders clash heads with Russia over the escalating Middle Eastern crisis the conversation dominating public discourse once again seems to revolve around everyone but the Syrian people. This morning our national newspapers ran with a series of bloodthirsty headlines stating the recent strike by the US, UK and France on Damascus and Homs a success, with the Daily Mail, The Sun, The Star and The Express all leading with triumphant declarations of military prowess. Only the Sunday Times made a...
Few people would deem a tough stance against racism to be a political own goal, but when your career is propped up by hard-line right-wingers that is precisely what it seems to be. At least, that is how Jacob Rees-Mogg might feel after he was lambasted for posting a Times column written by his father criticising Enoch Powell's infamous Rivers of Blood speech.
