Actress Honor Blackman, famous for playing Pussy Galore in the early Bond film Goldfinger, and fashion designer Vivienne Westwood are among those gathering in Westminster this afternoon to release 42 balloons in protest at Gordon Brown's plan to extend the detention limit to 42 days in suspected terror cases... Former London Mayor Ken Livingstone has told former members of his team at City Hall that he plans to run again for the mayoralty in 2012... ·
