Opinion: Have you ever felt ripped off by your bank? By Lorely Burt MP
Have you ever felt ripped off by your bank? I'm not talking about the scandal of banker irresponsibility which has helped land us into the deepest recession in living memory. I'm talking about the sense of injustice you feel when you get your statement to discover you've been charged outrageous fees for having stepped over an agreed overdraft limit.

Instep Dance at Brockhill School
Most of us will never know just how much talent is flourishing in our schools. Fortunately, I was invited to a show by Instep Dance Company, based at Brockhill School, and I experienced the highest level of performance I could have imagined. The programme enabled a wide range of performances to be seen from the various stages of instruction and development, from tiny tots to those ready to leave the education system.

Celebrating an Iconic Bedford Brand with Wells and Young's, the Blues and... a Live Eagle!
I was honoured to be asked to perform the unveiling of the new branding for the relaunched Wells and Young's Eagle IPA on Thursday. The beer has been relaunched to reaffirm its connection with Bedford, as asserted proudly by the slogan 'Born and Brewed in Bedford.' Thursday's event also marked Wells and Young's ongoing support for the Bedford Blues, another great ambassador for Bedford, and a number of players were in attendance, along with Director of Rugby Mike Rayer. With apologies to the Blues, however, I have to say that perhaps the most fearsome sight at the unveiling was another distinguished guest: a live eagle!
