THEY SAID WHAT?

“There are challenges that aren’t worth accepting. Getting out of a moving car will never be a good idea”

- Mexican police commissioner Manelich Castilla on the new craze among Mexicans to jump out of their moving car and dance alongside it to certain kinds of music.

“This is not the 1950s. Men and women work independently, pay taxes as individuals, and should each have an independent income. Not only does Universal Credit’s single household payment bear no relation to the world of work, it is out of step with modern life and turns back the clock on decades of hard-won equality for women”

- Labour MP Frank Field. “There are groups of middle class people who will sit round happily thinking about global warming and fair trade and environmental protection and all sorts of things, organic food, but think there’s no harm in taking a bit of cocaine. Well there is. There is misery throughout the supply chain”

- Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick, above.

“So amazing!! So infinite! So powerful! So electric!! It’s been the best eight years of my LIFE!! I can only imagine the greatness the future holds!!”

- Singer Alicia Keys waxes lyrical in an Instagram post marking the eighth anniversary of her marriage to rapper Swizz Beatz.

“I’m tough, I’m ambitious, and I know exactly what I want. If that makes me a b **** , OK”

- Madonna.

“I’m a one-man idiot”

- Eddie Izzard.
