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's very depressing

My vote won't count as my state is already voting blue. Yea Washington!

We had a very joking discussion with the Streathamites about working the marriage laws to all get them legal to vote, but alas, it would take too long for them to be able to have an impact in the US. And as you can see, moving to Florida just to vote would be (windy) very unpleasant!
