The Stupidity of Tories
http://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2008/12/the_stupidity_o.htmlJohn Stuart Mill was to my mind the greatest political philosopher this country has ever produced. If our New Labour governors had in their youth read Mill rather than pretending to read Marx and Trotsky, we would not be under such an assault on our civil liberties. …

http://opendotdotdot.blogspot.comSome fine outrage from our ex-man in Tashkent: I still do believe that we will come to recover from the terrible poison of the New Labour years, and return to being a liberal society.

http://winterpatriot.blogspot.combecause then they could claim to have scored a major victory in the war on terror, and they could more confidently ignore their critics, who say that dropping Hellfire on anybody -- especially somebody who has never been convicted of a crime -- is more like terrorism than justice. But it would be even more remarkable in another sense. Last week at this time we were reading about how Rashid Rauf was killed along with a couple of the other top-level al Qaeda masterminds, who drew attention to the mud bungalow in which they were

Liberal Conspiracy | creating a new liberal-left alliance
http://www.liberalconspiracy.orgthat a lot of people are making themselves look very silly. Indeed, we don’t know jack, yet various blowhards on both sides continue to gush hyperbole and claptrap. [/imho] Head of Legal takes a lawyerly approach the Green affair. Naturally. Craig Murray pours cool water over the outrage.

Iain Dale's Diary
http://iaindale.blogspot.comFormer UK Ambassador to Ukbekhistan Craig Murray has entered the fray in the Damian Green case with some potentially explosive allegations. He attacks Jack Straw for denying all knowledge of the incident, although I suspect his fire is slightly misdirected. Instead, his anecdote blows to pieces the Home Secretary Jacqui Sm

As expected considering the hot debate at the moment, in one section she writes: The arrest of Damian Green: Craig Murray can hear the jackboots and A Very British Dude says this is the way the world ends and Mick Fealty wonders what the Speaker was doing. She concludes by reminding folks: Next week the roundup will be on Redemption Blues. If you’d like to nominate a post (and please do),
