Wii Leave?
Parents who spent the weeks before Christmas trudging up and down Oxford Street, searching in vain for Nintendo's must-have Wii games console will doubtless be delighted to hear that several of the hard-to-find consoles were snapped up by Colnbrook Immigration Removal Centre.
According to a story in The Sun, Wiis are just one of the perks distributed to "dangerous foreign criminals" as they while away their time before deportation. Other goodies on offer include 48 inch plasma televisions, music rooms with top-of-the-range kit, and a scheme whereby inmates are paid to play football.
When poor little Jack and Chloe woke up on Christmas morning to find their stockings empty, little did their parents know that had they raised cut-throat Albanian people smugglers or fanatical terror supporters, Santa might have been more obliging.
