I have just bought a hot melt glue gun from a discount shop (£3.99).
Is there much difference in the quality of glue sticks? If so, what is best for general work?

Some are better than others. Last batch I bought from CPC were both decent quality and cheap for the quantity.

It will never work properly & burn your arms off. You need to spend at leat £150 to get a proper glue gun from a specialist glue gun shop. Discount shops sell shampoo, how can you expect the proper level of service?
You need gold plated ones at £15 each from a specialist glue gun stick shop. Or Waitrose.

Pop into a local Aldi and have a look in their racks,I think they sold boxes of 25 sticks at £2.99 two weeks ago?

Is there a significance to the glue-stick colour? I have accumulated assorted white, black grey and clear(ish) ones over the years and lost the packaging. I can't remember if the colour means it's for wood, plastic, general-purpose etc, or it's just to match what you're gluing. Anyway it's virtually impossible to remove the stick from my gun so I use whatever's in there....
