Being a yoghurt and museli eating liberal, I strive in life for racial harmony and world peace. I buy the Big Issue whenever I need something to read. I wear my Stand Up Speak Up and World Poverty wrist bands with pride. I've even made a killing from selling them on eBay.

Today I took part in an activity which brings together everyone in society. We all stood shoulder to shoulder - black stood next to white, old next to young, Jew next to Muslim, Scot next to Anglo, rich next to poor, chav next to mosher and Scouser next to Manc (although the former did attempt some pick-pocketing of the latter).

We stood there with a common aim.
We were all queuing to get served in the post office.
