Small children choke on low energy LED Christmas Tree lights as house prices tumble, according to the Mail. . . .
Concerned parent, Mr A Potter of Upton Bishop Herefordshire said ' when I saw his little face light up I panicked as I couldn't remember where I'd left my camera'

Nick, it's a bit late to be warning people of the dangers of these evil products isn't it?

I'm just waiting for them to bring out low energy patio heaters.

What do you think??

I was anticipating a flood of posts re the story that made various papers and the Today Program. The Mail Online reported it at low energy light bulbs could cause skin cancer.

Anyway it fizzled out so we can let it lie.
