Drinking From Home's excellent weekend summary

John Reid during an interview with Brian Hanrahan on the local elections:

What does it require now? It requires that we listen to the results of the local elections last week. Study them carefully, Brian. You will see that those areas which turned away from us were those areas which came to us under New Labour and are now getting increasingly
worried that we are abandoning the New Labour approach.

+ on George Galloway's 'Respect':

"I want to make it clear, I and Respect support the armed resistance in Iraq"

They must have been celebrating yesterday.

A JEERING mob threw stones at the bodies of a British crew whose helicopter was shot down in the southern Iraqi city of Basra yesterday.

My two cents:

Galloways 'armed resistance' in action:

An execution in Iraq. Atwar Bhajat was an Iraqi journalist, you will recall she was abducted and killed earlier this year. It transpires she wasnt shot as thought. (nb: This story is extremely upsetting)

"There's been plenty of condemnation of the BNP in the MSM recently, but the political party that promotes attacks on British troops continues to get a free ride."
