Good Thing
Very Bad Thing

I’ve removed Spiked from my links.

Reason? I came across Lobbywatch on a casual internet browse which goes on at length about how it is hugely bound up in what appears to be a Revolutionary Communist Party, pro-GM, pro all scientific progress at all costs lobbying network. At least that’s what folk like George Monbiot reckon.

Now, I happen to think that Mr. Monbiot is a bit of an anti-rationalist wanker myself. His Guardian columns have been annoying me for years. And i did know that the Spiked people were all marxists of one sort or another.

But I don’t want to be indentified with any of this daft factionalism (Judean People’s Front? Splitters!)

So Spiked! has had to go.

Proof of the fallibility of systems (not that they’ll see it like that)

Surely no-one will take ID cards and the National Security database seriously after this?
