This made me laugh at the time... David Lammy MP tweeting about Black and white smoke at the Vatican
"Mr Lammy was responding to a message on the BBC News World twitter feed, which provided a link to live coverage of the Vatican chimney, which said: "LIVE VIDEO: Chimney of Sistine Chapel as conclave votes for #Pope - will smoke be black or white?"
"This tweet from the BBC is crass and unnecessary," he wrote. "Do we really need silly innuendo about the race of the next Pope?"
