These are shocking days

interesting that the government has now had to go back to using 'D' notices to prevent pictures of the secret file being published. This is of course absolutely correct, even though disgraceful. The heat really is on the Home Secretary, and the Prime Mnister now. Why was Quick called to Downing Street, surely not a publicity shot to take the heat off the death of Ian Tomlinson.

It would appear to me that this is yet another diversion from shocking events. Ian Tomlinson dies, police implicated. Our Home Secretary is openly being called a thief by certain media outlets and does not go to the courts to prevent these comments.

Twelve men now arrested on anti-terrorism charges, I seriously look forward to the court cases if they ever get that far. High profile arrests, convictions? How long will these men be detained for under anti-terror laws.

A plot has been foiled, allegedly. There is more than one plot, Quick will pay the price, Jacquie Smith must sack him, no doubt, but if she sacks him then what about her own position. There is something rotten going on, I don't like the smell, there are rotting fish in the hold, and this is probably how the Greeks and Romans felt as their Empires collapsed. The final days, Gordon Brown is the head of a rotting corpse, time for an election. I bet the G20 seems like a lifetime ago. As we might say, 'where is that man when the going gets tough', I bet he is back in the bunker.
