Vanessa Feltz has weighed in on the latest twist in the Nicola Sturgeon scandal, questioning why the former first minister's husband, Peter Murrell, would spend £4,000 to buy back a pair of shoes she donated to an SNP fundraiser.
The Shoe Purchase
Feltz expressed disbelief at Murrell's decision to bid £4,000 for a pair of Kurt Geiger green snakeskin stilettos originally worth £290. She described the act as bizarre and hypocritical, given the couple's financial troubles. "If she liked them, she would have kept them," Feltz wrote, adding that most women would not want their partner to spend such a sum on reclaiming old footwear.
Toy Story 5
Turning to entertainment, Feltz highly recommended Toy Story 5, calling it the most engaging children's film in a decade. She praised Pixar for addressing the issue of children spending too much time on screens. "Run, don't walk to see Toy Story 5," she urged, hoping parents would take its message to heart and limit their children's device use.
Jerry Hall for Damehood
Feltz also called for Jerry Hall to be awarded a damehood for her graceful approach to aging. Hall, 70, has refused cosmetic surgery and embraces her wrinkles. Feltz admired her confidence and style, saying, "I'm going to channel her feisty spirit."
Criticism of Sadiq Khan
The columnist criticized London Mayor Sadiq Khan for spending £7 million on a campaign to improve London's reputation abroad. Feltz argued the money should be used to address local issues like traffic, anti-social behaviour, and protests. "Spend the money dealing with London's many issues, not sugar-coating them for foreigners," she wrote.
Congratulations to Molly-Mae Hague
Finally, Feltz congratulated Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury on the birth of their son, Midas. She noted the significance of the name, referencing the myth of King Midas. "All's well that ends well," she concluded.
