• The Met apparently wants more lady bikers. They claim macho stereotyping is putting the girls off: why don’t they realise that an endless run of bad hair days is just not that appealing.
• Ray ‘Sexy Beast’ Winstone is in the running for a remake of the Sweeney. Cor blimey guv.
• Residents of a block of flats in Lewisham have been evacuated as its collapse is apparently imminent. Now that’s scary.
• Whilst one rapist gets away (watch out for a John Malkovich lookalike), it looks as if another has been apprehended. This on the weekend that the justice system is put on trial for failing rape victims.
• And in this weekend’s knife crime round-up: 3 policemen received minor injuries when someone decided he didn’t want to be arrested, and in a more serious incident, a crash victim was fatally stabbed for good measure.

Here’s what we think we’ll see in the coming week:

• The mayor acting more and more crankily;
  
• Macca and Mucca acting more and more secretively;
  
• That Londonist still doesn’t like fashion. Much.

Have a safe week.
