This & that

The Home Office now stopping people in the street on the basis of their race (& note also that they want to stop benefits/housing for failed asylum seekers with small kids, as well. So we're getting rid of them by starving their children, are we? Fantastic).

And a less depressing link:
the Underground turned upside-down (picked this up off someone else a couple of weeks ago).

Hunt Bill being discussed today. Thumbs crossed...

Interesting site showing current US voting polls - bit depressing atm, though.

I don't think I have any US readers who are currently overseas, or indeed any US readers at all, but just in case: register online for overseas/absentee ballot.

It is, but Kerry only needs to swing the "barely Bush" states to "barely Kerry" to romp home. In fact, just Pennsylvania and Missouri would be enough.

Personally I'm utterly baffled to see Kerry allow this to happen. I really don't understand why he doesn't appear to be campaigning at all. Even just the odd optimistic soundbite would be better than this.

My hope is that he's just biding his time, waiting till the last minute to nail the lies and failures of that grinning cunt once and for all. But I have to admit that's a hope rather than an expectation.

Snaahrhar. Barely Bush. Still giggling!
