Recess on the horizon


by Lee Griffin    

Welcome to the Thursday casting the net slot. The parliamentary recess is soon to be underway and we had our last PMQs, so bring on the months of benign news! A request from myself, if you have a blog that you would like to have checked for posts let us know on tips[at]liberalconspiracy[dot]org. We have plenty of liberal and Labour blogs, but less so of more independent ones! As usual this, along with a few further links, will be up on my blog.

Gl0rfy! – Seven years ago Blair backed the brutal actions of Genoese police, actions that have yet to be punished.
CiF/Libby Brooks – A woman is (rightfully) asking for issues of rape to focus on the offender, it only took an hour for someone to undermine the point in the comments. Is this progression?
Peter Black AM – Peter Black points out some very hypocritical views in the Welsh assembly.
Millenium Elephant – House of Lords reform? Not if Jack “never make a decision” Straw has anything to do with it!
Linylooz Muze – Adding to the voices of concern about Cameron’s qualification for making certain statements, Linda wonders how much he can do for Black fathers.
Bloggasm – Simon has done some poking around to find some stats for blog readership in the US. Anyone want to do the same for the UK?

Casting Back
Atlantic Blog (2005) – Thee years ago Edward Heath died, I for one can’t help but draw some modern day parallels from the commentators musings.
