Physicist's daughter not comforted by Schrödinger's cat paradox


The nine year old daughter of quantum physics professor Jonathan Carnegie has rejected her father's attempts to comfort her in the wake of the disappearance of her pet cat, Edison. The animal has not been seen for six days after leaving the house last Sunday, and Marie Carnegie is pessimistic about the cat's fate. "I just know he's been run over by a car. I'm so upset, and my dad is just making things so much worse with this dead cat in a box, alive cat in a box, superposition thing," she said today. "Also, I really, really wanted to call him Fluffy," she added.

Poll: Tories at record levels of sanctimonious cant


An opinion poll published today shows that affected sanctimony amongst Tories is at its highest level for 15 years. Leader David Cameron welcomed the poll which comes in a week in which Tory frontbenchers have lined up to condemn the arrest of Damian Green. "This disgraceful assault on the freedom of Parliament has caused the most serious constitutional crisis since Charles I did that really bad thing, and that was ages ago," said a spokesman for the party today. Asked about the precise relationship between Damian Green and the civil servant at the heart of the leaking row, the spokesman said: "Ooh look, a squirrel!"
