IT'S THIRTY PRETTY THINGS FOR A REASON

While Pete Doherty's main contribution to road safety seems to be scattering his cars around the nation, former comrade-in-arms Carl is taking a more proactive role.

They're playing an awareness gig for the Make Roads Safe campaign, partly in memory of three fans who died in a road accident after a DPT gig:

Calling on fans to sign the Make Roads Safe online petition at www.makeroadssafe.org Carl Barat, lead singer of Dirty Pretty Things, said: "It is unbelievable that around the world a child is killed every three minutes on the road, yet almost nothing is being done to prevent this.

"The recent deaths in Suffolk of Claire, Jennifer and Carla were so sad, such a waste of young lives, and this is happening to families every day. This is why Dirty Pretty Things are supporting the Make Roads Safe campaign."
