Well, well, well. Look who just got stuffed by democracy. Is this the beginning of the end of Blairite steamroller politics? I do hope so....

What do people think as a whole? Would love to hear some opinions as the whole thing is starting to annoy the hell out of me to be honest. It seems thats Mr Blair has made a total muck up of the whole situation where he should have declared the constitution as dead, or atleast allowed the people of this country to show him that its dead. Europe will turn and things will be to late in my opinion if something isn't done. I see that Liam Fox and Michael Howard have tried to urge the PM to make some choices although nothing seems to have really materialized a great deal. I also have yet to hear the Lib Dem persepective on the whole issue.
Do people see the EU as a move forward or just another big mess? Myself I have turned quite sceptical, and def. do not want to join the Euro...keep the pound!

uk opposition leader michael 'loceeel peopeeel' howard
has realised that new labour has stolen all the conservatives
'centre ground' policies and the only way he's
going to win any more votes is to move even more to the right
and ape our glorious right wing tabloids
who love to panda to and reinforce the public's petty ignorance.
swell.

people who like to live in caravans don't deserve any human rights.
just like 'so called' asylum seekers...

i'm so proud to be british...


on a brighter note tv chef and professional geezer
jamie oliver's excellent tv show 'jamie's school dinners'
has actually caused some action on the scandal that is epitomised by the fact
that the average amount spent on a childs school dinner in the uk is
37p

schools that have taken up oliver's challenge to cook children a decent
meal at lunchtime are already reporting a marked improvement in behaviour and concentration.

way to go jamie.

this story sadly reminded me of an hilarious arrested development episode:

Lindsay having lost her stylist to the army reserve decides she must protest the war...

...protesters get off a bus and are herded into a 10ft square cage...

Military Official: This way, please. This way. Thank you. Right here. This way. I’d ask you to make sure you’re fully inside the free-speech zone before beginning your protest.

Lindsay: Free-speech zone? This is where we’re protesting? This isn’t right. Where are the cameras?

Military Official: They’re in the free-press zone. And, if you could save your comments until you’re completely loaded into the cage.

Lindsay: Well, at least the procession will come through here. They’ll see us protest.

Activist: Actually, they’re using their right to cut through the lemon grove.

Military Official: Okay, have fun. Enjoy your right to free speech. The armed forces welcome your dissent...

cracking double bill on bbc4 last night:
'baghdad or bust' and 'why we fight'.

'baghdad or bust' is a fascinating but somewhat depressing human study about the
humanshields.org project. a study of what happens when good intentions get subverted
by clashes of ego and a military dictatorship that can't believe it's luck...

even more enlightening is 'why we fight', a feature length documentary by eugene jarecki.
taking as it's starting point dwight eisenhower's farewell speech to the american public, why we fight admirably and forcefully shows how eisenhower's warnings about the rise of the military industrial complex have come true. old news perhaps, but skillful editing, excellent archive material and 5 or 6 poignant human interest strands make this film essential viewing.

'when war becomes a multi-billion profitable business, you can bet your bottom dollar they'll be more of it.'

'the federal defense budget is larger than all other federal spending combined'

'between 2002 and 2003 the US army spent $1.2bn on recruitment advertising'

This is satire, people, and does in no way represent my own thoughts and opinions. I just happen to think Tony Blair is a bit of a twat. *snort*

Satire is not dead!

If you had to choose between Blair & Brown right at this moment, who would you go for?

Strangely, I think I trust Blair more than I do Brown, but Brown seems more euro-sceptic than Blair.. so mixed feelings
