Use methylated spirit on stain, then rub a cloth soaked in cold water to which biological detergent has been added.

Check on the care sheet for leather but hairspray and a clean dry cloth works on biro that's stained ordinary clothing

Go to your nearest BMW dealership and buy their deep leather cleaner. We've got white sofas, 2 children and 5 cats and it brings it up like new every time (including biro!)
