Via yuxonomei : replica ancient roman seige weapon, one careful owner, requires slight attention. A snip at £25,000 . Me, I'd rather have a trebuchet . Flinging dead cows (or, indeed, flaming pianos and cars ) at stuff is much more my style ;) Via Lynne Featherstone , the thing I have spent most of the morning playing about on is Yoosk . I've asked a question of George Osborne , but mostly I have...

On the Sunday morning of conference, five bloggers and Liberal Democrat Youth and Equalities spokesperson Lynne Featherstone MP* huddled in the press conference room of the Bournemouth International Centre to talk Russia, London politics, campaigning and bullshit. The whole thing was organised by that resourceful pachyderm Millennium Dome, and, along with his Daddy Richard, bloggers Alex [...]

Ian Hislop! Don't you want to give the silly bastard a hard stare at least? An old-fashioned look? And Lynne Featherstone? And that Next man? And Oily Duncan? Poor old Harriet parachuted into a nest of liberalists and market idiots. But she won hands down from the five or ten minutes I saw. And the Extra. Texters to the BBC on QT were down to around half the usual number. No surprise given such a...

Positive coverage from PinkNews for a fringe held the other night, with amongst others, party CX Lord Rennard, Baroness Ludford and Lynne Featherstone MP (who incidentally, has been blogging her speeches at conference.) But it is heartening to hear that the gay rights are not just relegated to the fringe - but front and centre in [...]

Labour supporters don't have to keep playing the "Waiting for Gordon" game argues Lib Dem MP Lynne Featherstone The behaviour of much of the Labour Party reminds me of the two main characters in Waiting for Godot. Dump Gordon or get behind Gordon? No matter how many times a deadline has been rolled out for Gordon Brown to turn things round, the malaise limps on. Just as in Samuel Beckett's play, where...

Lynne Featherstone just might go down in history for similar reasons to US Senator Ted Stevens. Both have said something stupid about technology and shown their ignorance. Stevens described the internet as “basically, a series of tubes” and went down in flames for it. In similar style, it appears that Lynne Featherstone (Lib Dem MP for [...]

Commenting on Harriet Harman’s drive to make buying sex illegal, Liberal Democrat Equalities Spokesperson, Lynne Featherstone said: "Before introducing this new law, the Government has to prove that outlawing paying for sex will reduce trafficking. I remain to be convinced. The statute book is already littered with offences relating to prostitution, some of which are rarely used. "We should be gunning...

Well, well, well! Neil Williams, aka the "Humourless Bitch", now has his own blog . The Highgate councillor proudly stresses that HE was Lynne Featherstone's Agent in the 1997, 2001& 2005 general elections. Is this a 'bitch slap' to Mark Pack who claims to all and sundry that it was HIS efforts that won Lynne the seat? Whilst they handbag each other, Hunter reluctantly welcomes the Dour One to the...
