DAILY BLOG REVIEW / by Lee Griffin

CiF/Joanna Lumley I don’t think we can highlight enough how the Governments illegal actions are finally being overturned on the Gurkhas.

Obsolete wraps up the analysis of the Tory conference. In short, the Tories are certainly appearing to be the next party in power, even if they sound as shaky as ever.

Amnesty International UK Is Northern Ireland a sexists paradise? With figures like these we have to ask, is there a cultural problem here in urgent need of change?

TPM highlights the hypocrisy of the McCain campaign team, on the one hand trying to appear noble and above petty politics, but then also trying to blame Obama for everything that’s wrong in the world.

A week is a long time muses on the benefits of mistakes if you clear up the mess well

CiF/Colin Matthews Thinks that all this talk of “no third runway” at Heathrow is unrealistic.

Extended list will be on my blog later

Check out the Stone Plan. I hear a new updated version is coming out today.
