God gives Gordon Brown a breather

I guess Gordon needed a bit of a breather. That’s exactly what God has granted him while the press and the chatterati get their knickers in a bunch over the Archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan Williams’ seemingly feebleminded whitterings on Islamic Sharia law and its impact on the future of the British legal system.
I find it hard to believe that the good Doctor didn’t know exactly what would ensue following his pronouncements. I’d like to know what his real agenda is. I doubt it’s simply that he wants to bring the issue of religion’s relevance to today’s legal system into the arena of public debate... that’s too obvious... isn’t it?
Again, don't forget to recommend RueB to your friends.

Gordon works to preserve Liberty

Gordon Brown has backed the limited use of intercept evidence in court, after an independent review. In parliament he spoke of the dilemma we face as a free society: "that of preserving our liberties and the rule of law, while at the same time keeping our nation safe and secure".
Will the patient survive the treatment when it threatens so many liberties?.
Again, don't forget to recommend RueB to your friends.

Stiffing the taxpayer the Con Way

Tory MP Derek Conway tells us he's no crook and gets the Tory whip withdrawn and a damn good ticking off for himself. (exactly WHERE does David Cameron withdraw the whip from?)
That'll certainly stop any similar Parliamentary hanky panky in future.... not!
