In part I agree with you, the Labour leadership wants to simply wash their hands of Woolas.

Correct me if I am wrong, I thought that they are not really in a position to do this, weren't all leaflets issued by Labour candidates during the General Election approved by Labour HQ?

So doesn't that make Labour's position on fees somewhat hypocritical? If we are going to stick to loans and fees I think we should look across the pond at their most recent reform of student loans. There is no limit on fees but repayment is limited to a maximum of 10% of disposable income.

I need t be reminded about who ordered the Browne report? Wasn't it a Prime Minister with a similar name?

Agreed in full, I am sad that the idiotic language about the cap to Housing Benefit has hidden the real stories about the benefit cuts, may of which were proposals sitting waiting for Ministers to sign in to law, no matter the colour of the rosette they wore on the door.

Of course they are commies, they go on about "taking out the elites", how much they hate the$billions of Bill Gates and Soros (always Soros) and revolution.

The difference between the American Right and Marxist Commies is the Beckkkers want to hand all the wealth over to the Koch brothers.

The logo has now disappeared from his campaign site. American spectator sports are very hot about corporate branding so I'd bet he's had himself a nice DMCA take-down notice. I wonder how much literature he needs to shred?

I hope he asked for a refund from whoever "designed" his logo for him.

There is a lot to like in the Techie Manifesto, but there is a lot to distrust.

When Government (central or or local) orders anything over a certain amount they almost always ask for a bond, that requirement stops any small firm or individual bidding. If that can be addressed, while still providing some security for the public purse then competition in the Government software market can be opened up. Until the, all splitting contracts would do is more divide the work out between EDS, Capita and Northgate.

The 100mb connection idea sounds great, however I can see no point of that connection speed as a target if everyone as a result of the corrupt Digital Economy Bill is either banned or too afraid to use the internet.
