    I've always thought that major (and even minor) conspiracies and cover-ups involving the government would require serious organisation, planning, guile and skillful cunning.

    It seems rather strange that if most governments have these qualities they appear to save them for just their conspiracies, rather than for the everyday running of the country.

    Just an observation.


    What words of wisdom.

    Pop down to your local market stall and you'll see it on a t-shirt. Right next to the one with the wolf howling in front of a large moon and a dolphin jumping out of the sea, also infront of a large moon.

    I was brought up in a town where these high quality fashion items single handedly keep the local economy going.

    Reintroducing a note of seriousness. That was one of the most shameful episodes of the Tony Blair era. And he calls himself a Christian. Bah...
