Parents have blasted a school as “draconian” for measuring the length of girls’ skirts by ordering them to KNEEL on chairs to see how far their hems ride up their thighs. The bizarre measuring technique was outlined by the secondary school in a letter sent to parents in a crackdown on uniform “compliance”. If the hemline of the skirt is more than 5cm (1.9ins) away from the chair then girls will be ordered home to change into a longer garment....

Jeremy Corbyn completely overshadowed acts such as Ed Sheeran and Thom Yorke's Radiohead as the most talked about act at Glastonbury.

Former EDL leader Tommy Robinson has been filmed repeatedly punching a man in a Royal Ascot car park - but he has since claimed it was done in 'self-defence.' He preaches that Islam is a religion of violence, however this clip appears to show the ex-football hooligan is more than capable of aggressive behaviour himself. Robinson, real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, was caught on a coach's dash cam footage pushing the man to the ground in a. He throws around seven punches towards the...

In astonishing scenes for a music festival, tens of thousands of music fans left other stages and bands such as the Kaiser Chiefs to mass around the Pyramid stage...

Corbyn fans are in dreamland at the moment. Labour were recently ahead in the polls and now the leader himself is more popular than May, when it comes to leading the country.
