Russell Brand’s erudite audacity means not only that the revolution “cannot be boring”, it also makes it more plausible. At least he has the balls to take on the capitalist establishment.

I’ve always considered Russell Brand something of a jackanapes: intermittently amusing, more often irritating. The excerpt from Brand’s book, Revolution, however, was a revelation. Profoundly valid and important political ideas, expressed with wit: it seems Mr B has found his métier. Consider me in.

Russell Brand should not just slam unfettered free markets and their puppet politicians but the waste and futile activity they spawn. Technology’s benefits have been countered by the growth in pointless bureaucracies, with Dickens’ Circumlocution Office alive, well and dithering somewhere near you.

Four astonishingly brave people and the bond they have each formed with their extraordinary doctors. That’s what should have been on your cover.

The stigma about yoga Deborah Coughlin mentions exists only in the west. I live in outer London and we have a group of Asian women aged from 50 to 84 and of varying weights who meet once a week to do yoga. Deborah is welcome to attend our sessions.

I liked Will Self’s article on the Berlin wall. Was that picture a Selfie?

Marina O’Loughlin crossed the line when she referred to a staff member as “gormless’ in her review. I cringe when I imagine how he must have felt reading that.

Sophie Heawood, you made my morning. My thoughts are irreversibly more “sexy” and “delicious” since I sat down in my first seminar three years ago. If you take to the streets, I’m there.

Scrapping tuition fees has long been the policy of the Green party, so I’m delighted that we can look forward to Sophie’s vote on 7 May.

I went away for a few weeks and Tim Dowling has been replaced with some alien, beard-wearing Hackney hipster. What happened to the dour-faced Tim I was used to?
