Liz is right – cheap jewellery rocks

ANOTHER week, another gaffe by Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries. This time she was praising Tory leadership hopeful Liz Truss (pictured) for wearing £4.50 earrings from Claire’s Accessories — before it was swiftly revealed that Dorries herself wears £6,000 diamond earrings. More fool her and all those who are taken in by the twaddle about a diamond being ‘for ever’. I cannot fathom why you would spend so much on a couple of sparkly rocks when you can get a pair of equally sparkly ones for £6. As Marilyn Monroe didn’t sing: cubic zirconia is a girl’s best friend.
