Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has told his people that the West is so scared of Iran it's worked out a way to steal all their rain.

"According to reports on climate, whose accuracy has been verified, European countries are using special equipment to force clouds to dump their water on their continent."

He cited as evidence an article by an unidentified "Western politician" while speaking at the unveiling of a new dam in the city of Arak. According to the Telegraph's Barney Henderson, rain began to fall from the sky moments after Mr Ahmadinejad finished his speech.

The footballer everyone knows the name of but that no one's allowed to name decided to sue Twitter, which, to me, seems as nebulous and intangible an act as heckling the sky or deciding to put water in prison.

As the 'paper's based in Scotland, it's not bound by the same super-injunction laws that have so far denied English media outlets the privilege of raking the man who allegedly had an affair with a nice looking lass's muck.

The image above is the Independent's front page this morning, while the Herald's editor Richard Walker explains his decision in an interview here.
