American conservatives and libertarians are simply barking

Its not usual that I would direct any0one to a blog who banned me for not agreeing with them, but this really does give an insight into just how totally off-the-wall these people are.

They are sincere, certainly, but read Sarah's contributions. So far to the right that she is falling off the edge.

EVENTS, DEAR BOY, and all that

Once again I have not been spending time on my blog. Naughty, naughty. I blame Facebook.

OK, some points to note:
1. Vatican plc - carries on in its usual crazily bigoted way, winning a small, partial and temporary 'victory' in the charity commission being asked to reconsider the decision not to give charitable status to an adoption agency which wished to continue to discriminate. The new equality bill will scupper that in any case as the duty of equality will stop LA's working with instituionally discriminatory agencies who think the law is above them. Still, look at Ratfinger the Nazi's latest attempts to save his loathsome organisation in Europe. Not convincing, is it?

2. The BA strike - pity that Brown has bumbled into the argument. I'd be more convinced if Willy Wally blamed himself and his management style for this years failures and resigned. typocal to try and take it out on others.

3. The election - will be on May 5th so it seems. I wish I could raise some enthusiasm. If Joe Benton remains Labour candidate I won't be able to vote for him because of his homophobic voting record, so I will no doubt end up voting for some fringe left-winger!

4. The Clevelend Show. Its fab, and the theme tune is SO catchy!

5. And RIP to Michael Foot. A man of learning and principle which can be said about far too few politicians

Homophobe of the week - Susanne Wilkinson!

Emails need to point out that their website suggests they will welcome ALL guests - but not if they are gay, so it seems.....

Not a good day for Liverpool

Anything to do with the Bulgers brings out the worst aspects of this city. Revenge, underlying violence, self-pity. We've just seen it all again - its understandable that the parents feel like this, though Gee Walker's response to her son's murder is that which eschews hatred and vengeance. But why do we have the tabloids jumping on the bandwagon and goodness knows how many other people who are not involved at all?
