A friend recently posted a video to their Facebook wall which is a political advert for gay marriage. It’s excellent on a number of counts, mainly because it’s for a great cause (declare bias early) but also unlike some political ads it’s not preachy and with very few words spoken throughout makes it’s point well.

An article about the recent tragic death of 4 miners highlights the issue of lapse Health and Safety that led to their deaths. When you read a ridiculous article in the crap tabloid press about tabloid health and safety gone mad the majority of the time it’s nothing to do with health and safety it’s [...]
I used to keep up with what was happening in Israel and Palestine quite a bit. Over the past couple of years I haven’t been able to keep up as much in what is going on. A couple of months ago I went to a show by Mark Thomas, he decided to walk the wall [...]
Originally written December 2011 To quote the Hives Hate To Say I Told You So. Tommy Sheridan has been convicted of perjury. To his acolytes this is a surprise. Even the ones who know he did and also committed perjury on his behalf. To anyone paying attention this was inevitable. To those involved in these [...]
I miss the good old days of UGS where I would in real time point out the errors in police statements around such incidents as the murder of Jean Charles de Menezes. After the student protests last week there were a couple of gems in the news. The most indicative single article though is this [...]

They managed to catch [...]
Opened the papers this morning to find that Channel 4 and it’s various offshoots are still off limits. It appears the last series of Big Brother was not really the last series and they have beat the dead horse even further. Like something from a parody the walking dead are still there. Having churned out [...]
Hardly a day goees by without one of the scummy papers ranting about Health and Safety gone mad. These new rules always provoke outrage and rage and anger, but of course only in the mind of the readersand writers of these sorts of papers. The worst of course being the Hitler supporting Daily Mail. This [...]
Genna was called yesterday by yet another dodgy SEO company. They called from 0161 9058460 which from an advert appears to be a company called Rank Right. They claimed that they were from Google and could get her site to the first page of Google for £99 per month. Having dealt with this sort of [...]
My current joy: Doing a compare between an old and new version of two versions of a piece of software. This is the last minor release before the next major version number release. The developer has decided to update his address in the copyright section of almost 300 files. I am now having to go [...]
