Judgement
Welcome to Casting the net, Liberal Conspiracy’s daily web review. As always, please feel free to share your own recommendations in the comments. There are some excellent posts around the internets today, here is just a taster…
*** GL0RIFY! *** – In the longest trial of its kind in history, an animal rights activist has been jailed for 4.5 years. The presiding judge’s hobbies include “shooting, smallholding, gardening and fishing”. An appeal, based on his apparent conflict of interest, has been launched.
The Daily (Maybe) – There was a by-election yesterday, apparently. JimJay brings us the rundown.
OurKingdom – Anthony Barnett commends Davis’ performance, and takes a swipe – again – at the “sneering” BBC.
Rachel North – Rachel debated liberty on the eve of the election. Here is her speech.
The Curvature – When a male anti-rape activist is arrested for filming and photographing the naked chest of an unconscious woman, to sate his sexual desire, you have to wonder why the wanker still blogs as if he’s a pro-feminst warrior?
Obsolete – There are some confrontations where “whoever wins, we lose.” septicisle assesses the battle between Max Mosley (spit) and The News of the World (double spit).
normblog – Should Morgan Tsvangirai set up a government in exile (to be recognised by the UN), or should he push for a coalition with Mugabe? Geras questions The Nation’s Robert Dreyfuss’ pathetic defence of the latter.
Amnesty Blogs – Black and ethnic males are 7-times more likely to be stopped and searched than their white counterparts. Anyone else reminded of 1981?
