In an interview with the Times, the self-styled chairman of the Centre for Social Justice announced, “We are driving children to lose their childhood, and some video games are incredibly violent, like Grand Theft Auto.”
“They are meant to be 18 but nobody cares what it says on the label,” added the man who, while he lacked the trainers or funky ‘I took drugs at university’ soundbites to win a general election, clearly has his finger on the pulse of popular culture after all.

Hello! Between writing 360, drinking cheap coffee, and staring the wall in fits of despair, the 360 team like nothing more than to swivel around in our chairs and engage in some random office banter. So we thought we’d try out a new blog feature where we round-up some of the random conversation topics we’ve had over the course of each day.
