Remember the kerfuffle over photographers in the Field of Remembrance on Armistice Day? Both Gordon Brown and David Cameron have apologised to officials at Westminster Abbey. Good. Do you think it is possible for politicians to depoliticise anything? Perhaps not. Tagged: Dave, Gordon Brown

Guido’s Blackberry is dead. They can’t deliver a new one until Monday. The spare phone in the bottom of the drawer just makes and receives calls and you can text (by pressing keys four times to get the right character). It doesn’t even have a camera. No Twitter, no Facebook, no Bloomberg, no Reuters, no live [...]

So how should we describe the expert panel of the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence, which decided that patients will be denied a [...]

The 500 million people of Europe have a new president, not one of them was troubled with the requirement to cast a vote. Actually that is not quite true, 27 politicians decided unanimously who to appoint. Soviet Politburos invariably came to unanimous consensus decisions, it is a characteristic of undemocratic systems that deals [...]

It was only 90 days ago that we were told that Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al Megrahi had only three months to live. Well he lives and breathes today. Officials in Libya last week confirmed that Megrahi had been discharged from Tripoli Medical Centre. Colonel Gaddafi’s regime has publicly declared its hope that “a miracle from God” [...]

Thirty-four Labour PPCs have written to Gordon begging him for a referendum on reforming the electoral system to be the final installment of his outgoing scorched earth policy. The letter that has the backing of the left-wing front-group “Vote for Change” reads “we do not believe that Labour will benefit at the next general election [...]

Ken Andrew, the Conservative Parliamentary Candidate for Carshalton & Wallington, is obviously happy he got married. So happy he put it on his leaflet (full size) delivered to the electors of Carshalton & Wallington.

The Labour blogosphere campaigned to make an internal party YouTube hit “Against All Odds” their Party Political Broadcast. With a little bit of help from Bad Al Cambell, John Prescott and Twitter Czar Kerry McCarthy it was used as a cheap and cheerful official broadcast last night.
