Oi!

How come we never make it to the daily dozen!

Anna Raccoon as written a stunner on how unelected judges can now kill "defective" children.

Who needs gas chambers?

The best thing about Kevin Maguire's blog is how all the comments to every post just slag him off.

Fully deserved. Tedius little sycophantic tosser that he is. I think he's trying to line up a job in the Labour Party.

Old Holborn, if you really have to ask...

Lets be clear - over ar CoffeeHouse James Forsyth puts the case FOR the 45p tax band.

Or rather not immediately repealing it once (if) in power. Eminently sensible.

Course if we follow you and Fraser Mr D, we never will be in power so your intellectual purity will remain unsullied.

You dopey ass.

I recently looked at your "Civvy" pictures and enjoyed them very much. Almost brought a tear to my eye, until I saw that terrible harridan, Yasmin Alibhai Brown.

How could you?

I bet Dougie Carswell would like the trains if they were Israeli, though ;)

Thanks for the link Iain.

Are you saying you didn't give (or sell perhaps) the two Ken/Total Politics diary stories to the Guardian Diary? Or that you don't have influence at the BBC? or that you didn't boast that you had a handful of exclusives that you were going to pimp to your friends in the press!?!

Which I'm not complaining about by the way. That's the way diaries work. Someone tell Guido.

I certainly didn't sell anything to the Guardian. I didn't even know about the Any Questions thing. I did indeed circulate the interview to the media the day before it was published.

I don't think I have any influence at the BBC, sadly!
