I think it's rather sad that it's taken a case involving the Prime Minister's brother for legal aid cuts to become such a scandal. If Grayling goes, Cameron is going to be inundated with conflict of interest accusations.

From browsing Twitter his core audience was swallowing his drivel with enthusiasm and this apology was probably to save face for the commentators and BBC management.

If you don't salt your own beef (or get your butcher to do it) you're a slave to the sandwich industry imo.

I like that the police don't know how to handle social media. It's a much better situation than having legislation that would no doubt put it on par with libel/defamation laws which is the worst thing that could possibly happen. Not saying this isn't a terrible incident of course.

Well I suppose the co-operative movement was good while it lasted, but in the name of the competition, the business and the holy money it is to be "reformed" in conjunction with Baron Myners. I usually find conspiracies a little silly but the movement's fall from grace in the last few years has been so strange.

Spangly A posted:Well. I was a guest at an event Serco hosted last year, met some of the top brass (ex armed forces officers and Whitehall sorts mostly). They had a fixation on completing contracts for their "clients" by any means necessary, as if they were vital to society. Sometimes I wonder if they're right.

Quite happy I voted for the Greens, can see their presence in the EU being quite positive for certain directives. Won't be going anywhere near them next year though.

I hope Nate Silver covers the elections next year because relying on the BBC for coverage is poo poo. Give me graphs, exit polls etc.

big scary monsters posted:Is there any chance that the Tories and Labour will let up a bit on their anti-immigration spiel now? I know that UKIP's rise seems like it would make them redouble their efforts, but nobody would take UKIP the slightest bit seriously if mainstream parties hadn't been blaming all the country's ills on foreigners and the EU for the last few years.
