I am bloody knackered. I hope at some point later today to have some kind of brilliant insight into something or other – quite what I don’t yet know – but for now this should be more than enough to … Continue reading →

Up now, courtesy of Mr Nick Barlow. And a bit of back-patting for me – still bitter at being overlooked by the Guardian on Saturday – I appear to have been linked by C-Net’s The Buzz Report in a piece … Continue reading →

If you haven’t worked it out yet, our man Justin McKeating – aka Chicken Yoghurt – is a bit good at the old enraged demolition of politicians’ neverending doublespeak. That’s probably why they had a screenshot of his place in … Continue reading →
