Silver Machine
I'm slightly confused as to what Matthew Wright (of TV's 'The Wright Stuff') is doing here.
Ring Of Fire
As promised, Respect supporters and the FBU will be blockading the Bethnal Green Fire Station to stop the removal of a fire engine from the borough.

...And Another Rule For Them.
Jeremy Paxman asked Leon Brittan a question on Newsnight tonight; Mr Brittan said it was 'a ridiculous question' that he woudn't answer. Mr Paxman laughed. Lord Brittan QC also laughed.
I sighed, thought of election night and wrote this post.

Work Is Rubbish
I wonder how much it would cost to do a worldwide survey asking the single question:
"Is work, for the most part, a load of rubbish?"
Then I suppose for the great majority the answer would be:
"Work, for the most part, would be better than sifting/living in/eating a load of other peoples rubbish"
Maybe the question should be:
"Is life, for the most part, a load of rubbish?"
I think a resounding "yes" might very well ripple across the globe.
Which seems a real shame.

Pick A Scab, Any Scab
Earlier I vented my anger at Chris Moyles and indeed any 'star' at the BBC crossing the picket line and working today. I think I was right.
He gets his big fat pay cheque every month, while the technicians who earn a tiny percentage of his pay but make his 'shows' possible get fired.
Natasha Kaplinsky didn't even scab.
I tell you who did scab though. The online guy who put my angry email on the BBC website.
Doh.

It Was Gorgeous, George. Again.
If the idiotic nature of the American right needed highlighting anymore today has done it.
What in God's name did they think would be the outcome of letting Galloway take centre stage in front of them and the world? I defy anyone who thinks it was anything less than a fucking masterclass in political speaking.
It really is a joy to watch. Please have a look here.
And I tell you what, shame on supposed radicals like Dennis Skinner. Shouting 'Did she bring Camilla with her' in the Commons today as the Queen arrived isn't the funniest retort, would have been better if shouted while she was actually on her little chair and looks like the bullshit playschool politics that it is.
Especially when George is giving them both barrels in Washington.

Cloud Get You Out Of My Head
The British public are once again looking utterly pathetic as a vocal minority of nitwits grab the headlines. Yesterday they were sitting in the pissing rain watching grown men walk around as 'Stormtroopers', today complaining about the new style weather reports as 'unintelligible'.
They'd like to go back to the old symbol-based report. After one day of the new one. Back to the one where a little cloud represented the whole south-east for example. They seem to be finding it difficult and offensive to have a system that actually looks like the country it's talking about and shows you specifically how the weather will be in each area. (i.e. is much better at doing what it's there to do).
At these moments I despair at the possibility of change in this country. Unless George Lucas or some football team leads it, there'll be no revolutions here. Ever.
In other news...
BBC FiveLive are carrying the Washington Senate Hearing with Galloway live at 14.30. Give 'em hell George.
Hope Kylie gets better soon, but who will replace her at Glastonbury? Surely Iron Maiden are the obvious choice?
I should be so lucky.
