Free Mother's Day scarf? How cheap would you have to be to give that to your mum as a Mother's Day present?

I think she'd be happier with the chocolate bar.

OK, I think that's the quickest pension u-turn yet. Surely even its own readers will remember that the front page two days ago said the opposite???

The Express slips a bit further beyond parody...

The Star are giving away a mothers' day bag of sweets from Poundland. I rather doubt many mothers will think much of that...

Hmmm... I can't quite put my finger on it... is there something different going on in DBC?

Shit! The Express frontpage is actually reporting some real news for a change:

Though if the Guardian's account is correct, the Express headline is somewhat inaccurate:

Quote:

There will be no tolls on the existing road network. But if the road companies create new capacity – by adding lanes to existing roads or building new roads altogether – then they would be entitled to charge for their use.

The prime minister will say: "We need to look at innovative approaches to the funding of our national roads – to increase investment to reduce congestion. Road tolling is one option, but we are only considering this for new, not existing, capacity. For example, we're looking at how improvements to the A14 could be part-funded through tolling."

IMO there's not much not to like about a Twix. They're a pretty inoffensive sort of sweet treat.
