  • Roll up, roll up! For Fayed’s amazing circus!

    February 21, 2008

    Following my last post about Mental Health Act, I remembered I’ve not blogged, since my semi-(cough-sniff!)-return to health, about the Diana inquest. I was amused today that Lord Foulkes and Denis MacShane have called the inquest a […]

    I told you I’d be unbearable. And never let it be said that this blog isn’t up with sleb culture. Gazza has been detained under the Mental Health Act, it seems. Astonishing.

    One of the dubious benefits of having a BLOODY cold is that you sit, Lemsip in hand and with thtuffed-up node, mindlessly watching the entire Commons debate on the Banking (Special Provisions) Bill on a Tuesday night, being momentarily […]

    February 21, 2008

    February 21, 2008

    Now I’m sniffling and snuffling my way to coherence, there seems an awful lawt to blawg about. So bear with me in the next few days, even if I seem unbearable.

    February 21, 2008

    It was due to a very busy period followed by a bloody, bloody cold keeping me off blogging for a while.

    Carl Gardner
    February 8, 2008

    I just knew there was going to be a pro-Williams backlash today. To be fair to the people who’ve stepped up to the plate, they’re brave in taking an unpopular stance. But I’m so, soooo in disagreement with them that […]

  • Sharia law debate on More 4 news

    Carl Gardner
    February 7, 2008

    Unbelievably, More 4 news tonight, leading on the Williams/sharia story, has a “debate” between a pro-Williams Muslim lawyer, who backs Williams; and the extreme Islamist Anjem Choudhury, who opposed Williams on the basis that his proposal would not […]

  • Sharia law: windbag Williams at it again

    Carl Gardner
    February 7, 2008

    I’ve never had much time for Rowan Williams: touted and hyped as a man of liberal progressive principle, and the highest posisble intelligence, he has in fact shown himself as prepared to bow to hatred of homosexuality rather than […]
