Sorry about the lack of posts. I seem to have come down with some nasty lurgy which is making staring at a computer screen for any great length of time give me a headache (not to mention the blocked sinuses, fever, aching muscles and hacking cough), and stringing a coherent sentence together is difficult. So as a total cop-out, here are ten other stories collected over the week (in no rational order) that are worth reading:
-
Ministry of Truth on John Reid’s latest attack on our freedoms.
-
Mask of Anarchy on McDonald’s efforts to to have the word “McJob” removed from the dictionary.
-
Rachel has returned from her honeymoon only to face yet more abuse from a batshit cyber-stalker and is asking for help.
-
Grimmerupnorth on why Jon Cruddas is a dishonourable hypocrite who should not be elected to the Deputy Leadership.
-
Not Saussure on yet another attack on our civil liberties by our wonderful government.
-
Blood & Treasure on the latest ratcheting up of the hate campaign against Iran.
-
Ten Percent on America’s renewed sabre rattling against Iran and on just who is really supporting Fatah al-Islam in Lebanon.
-
Lenin’s Tomb on the secret air war in Iraq.
-
Tears for Lebanon on the misery that the Lebanese people are facing.
-
Obsolete on Margaret Hodge’s latest outburst in favour of the BNP (supported by Hazel Blears no less).
Hopefully I’ll be back to ‘normal’ blogging as soon as I feel a bit better.
