		<title>RIP Chris Lightfoot</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Site overhaul got delayed for personal reasons and issues with the internet connection at my new place, but I&#8217;ve been keeping my journal going, and have written a tribute to Chris Lightfoot over there.  The bloggers blogger, he&#8217;ll be missed by all of us.

		<title>Blair planning something?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently discovered that my (soon to be former) MP has a blog, on MySpace.  It&#8217;s actually not awful, for a MySpace blog, but today, he&#8217;s speculating Blair Resigns? :
something is definitely in the air.  I don&#8217;t know what it is, but if Blair announces his resignation by the end of this week, [...]]]></description>

		<title>National Databases: A vision of madness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ian Parker, a writer new to me, has an excellent story on the dangers of the database state that ends with:
In a free society, the rights and laws protect the individual from the government.  In a dictatorship, the rights and laws protect the government from the people.
So very true.  We&#8217;ve written at length [...]]]></description>

		<title>300 years of Great Britain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am reminded that this year will mark the 300th anniversary of the Act of Union that created Great Britain.  There are those that would like it to also be the last, a subject I&#8217;ve written about extensively in the past.  Indeed this desire seems to be spreading both North and South of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mass Lone protest</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Via D-Notice I see that this afternoon is another registration day for one of Mark Thomas&#8216; Mass Lone Protests, forms to be handed in at the Police Station on Agar Street, just up from Charing Cross station.  As I&#8217;m in London (flat, then job, hunting), might as well register my presence.
If anyone else cares [...]]]></description>

		<title>Halliday on the worlds worst ideas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Professon Fred Halliday has written an analysis of what he believes to be the twelve worst ideas in international discourse.  On some of his points, I agee completely, on others, he is completely off base.  I seem to recall thinking that when I studied his theories properly, but that was a few years [...]]]></description>

		<title>Europe: A vision of the future?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Written a lot about Europe in the past, I think I&#8217;ve found and tagged most of the old posts but have probably missed hundreds.  One of the subjectst that comes up time and again is that, while I don&#8217;t like the EU as it currently stands, I like it more than the current alternatives, [...]]]></description>

		<title>New year, new writers, new look?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, I guess it&#8217;s about time to try to end the hiatus here.  I&#8217;ve personally been busy wrapping up at my old job and enjoying a break, but while I&#8217;m still &#8216;between jobs&#8217; as they say, and moving to London soon, that&#8217;s no reason to not do stuff here.
Anyway, I&#8217;m hoping to invite a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hypothecation - not a hypothesis on vacation, but about as much use</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My first post on here is something that I&#8217;d been planning to write about on my livejournal for a while, but it took me a while (11 months actually) to get around to. The thing that spurred me to actually getting around to write it was someone saying something along the lines of the following:

		<title>Electoral reform and extremist parties</title>
		<description><![CDATA[No idea who he is, but Steven Skelton has an excellent article at Make My Vote Count about electoral reform and the rise of the BNP.  It&#8217;s nothing I haven&#8217;t said before, but it&#8217;s very well put together and all in one place.
