The main focus of my activities yesterday was a meeting last night with the Bury campaign organising committee. This morning I attended a coffee morning in aid of Bury Hospice. I was disappointed but not too surprised to see that a Conservative motion asking for the Government to agree at least in principle to the holding an Inquiry into the war in Iraq was defeated. I am sure that despite this vote there will be such an Inquiry and in my view that is entirely appropriate so that we can see what lessons can be learned for the future.

Err, No Thanks! I will stick with democracy and would be grateful if everyone else would do the same.
I think it is about time we start talking about a violent overthrow of our government. Is political assassination really out of the question?
I have always been a non-violent person, but things are getting out of hand. How about some domestic terrorism? Britain is a blight on the world community, and I think that rational well-intentioned people should start thinking about doing something before our government gets us all killed.
It’s not just politics. Our economic system perpetuates a greed that will destroy us. The market assumes that we will all act in our own self-interests, so we shouldn’t be shocked when corporations fight regulations that seem to make perfect sense. No one wants the world to die as global warming reaches a tipping point, but no one wants to pay the financial price necessary to stop it. Eco terrorism may be our only way out. Kill the corporations; Kill the government; Save the planet. Be on the right side of history. Viva la revolucion!” Will you join in…?
