DC countdown 11:45am on 14 Jan 2009 All incredible hype. I just hope when people come to their senses they realise that Barack Obama doesnt have a magic wand and things will go on much as they are.
Less money, less art? 1:19pm on 09 Dec 2008 It could produce art that is appreciated by the general public - speaking for myself, abstract art is difficult to comprehend, and seems pointless apart from making huge sums of money from gullible people
End of Thatcher's tax incentives 00:01am on 25 Nov 2008 I have yet to see anyone giving the government credit for at least trying to fix the problem. Whatever your immediate reaction to the budget report, some kindness should have coloured your thinking instead of the bitter comments I have so far seen.
Paper Monitor 1:51pm on 14 Nov 2008 HRH needs all the good publicity he can get.
President Obama: A Newsnight Special 1:10pm on 05 Nov 2008 It says much about the desire of the coloured people to be counted as citizens and not as a sub-class because of the colour of their skins.

I think that the oppononents have much to learn and will make life very difficult for Barack personally and the democrats generally.

However, it is all of a piece with their regimented society, as it has been for thousands of years.
Can the NHS last another 60 years? 3:12pm on 30 Jun 2008 Thankyou missmadscientist for clarifying what this debate is all about - money!

If I lived in a village and my docter was miles away in another village, or God forbid, in a town or city's supersurgery then I would die of neglect!
What could Gordon do to turn it around? 1:17pm on 25 Jun 2008 I would like to see him stick to his guns and not allow public opinion to sway his policies
Prospects for Friday, 20 June 00:44am on 21 Jun 2008 It makes one wonder, since the ratification process has gone through, what the politicians are scared of.

Suppose this country had voted no. What weasel words would Europe have tried to soothe us with
Should Mugabe be tried for war crimes? 5:28pm on 20 Jun 2008 In theory, yes. But you will never get Mugabe to recognise the court or even admit he has done anything wrong
