Kyle, bile and cliched claptrap As celebrities threaten to storm the House of Commons, driven on by anger about parliamentary expenses and the prospect of furthering their careers, who better to have a crack at producing a new manifesto for social stability than a man watched by about 1.5m people as he moralises daily on ITV1 at 9.25am? Jeremy Kyle is a television host with alarmingly blue eyes and tough opinions, who was once accused by a judge of running his chat show like a bear pit. Some of the details of young Jezza's life provided in this book - his father worked for the Queen Mother; his parents were devoted to him (one wouldn't imagine they told him to be seen and not heard) - are unintentionally funny. But it is his wider discussion of the state of the nation that gives real insight into our homegrown Jerry Springer and how he has come to be the public face of a trend, most recently seen in Britain's Got Talent, where the vulnerable are ridiculed for entertainment.'Kids having kids', as he describes teenage GuardianWhat a way to run a country It has taken 4,500 years for democracy to reach its modern form ... So what, exactly, have we been left with, asks David RuncimanThough it is often difficult to know what democracy really means, it has never been hard to say where it started, or when: it all began in Athens about 2,500 years ago. Right? Wrong, according to John Keane, who thinks that our taste for these sorts of founding myths is a large part of why we are so confused about what democracy is and how it works. We want the story to be neat as well as noble, and so we lose sight of all the ways in which democracy is neither of these things. Instead, as Keane shows in this monumental new history, it is often chaotic and its progress around the world has been highly contingent, with neither tidy beginnings nor happy endings. Keane's aim is, as he puts it, to 'democratise' the history of democracy, opening it up to all the unheralded sources and unlikely experiences that have shaped its fate and ours.So Athens isn't where it GuardianTwo pro-Taliban clerics killed in Pakistan shootout ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Two pro-Taliban clerics were killed in a shootout between security forces and militants in northwestern Pakistan Saturday, a day after around 40 people were killed in a suicide attack in a mosque, the military said.
