Alan Johnson, Home Secretary, said: “We have already committed to a number of the recommendations in this report.

All my life I believed that Currants - the dried ones - were one of the trinity of dried grapes we used in cooking. The big daddy being the ubiquitous Raisin, with the sweeter more approachable Sultana on his right hand side and Currants occupying the unexplainable ethereal role which no one can really explain.
I felt pretty damned stupid when deep in my cups I was expanding on this theory when a know-it all said; "Currants, grapes? Duh, there is a clue in their name what they actually are. Like currants man, Ribes, black, red, white, currants..."
It is not often I am wrong so I slunk off silently.
I has taken me six months to face up to my ignorance and look them up, and hah! Dried Currants aren't currants at all, they are dried Black Corinth Grapes aka Zante Currants. Currant bushes are named after the Currant, or Corinth , grape.
Now all I have to do is remember who put me down as a know nothing and shove a currant bun into his face.
