Sword in the Lake: Newman Offers "Galloway" Defence
http://swordinthelake.blogspot.com/2007/04/newman-offers-galloway-defence.html
Once back here I got to thinking - 'how do I get out of this? Perhaps the really haunting spectre is that I would have to turn my back on the lake, and the prospect of the sword." Alan Clark,. Friday, 20 April 2007. Newman Offers "Galloway" Defence. Covered on his blog yesterday. The Islington Tribune today reports. N's joke at the expense of Chris S and myself and the fiasco over the council election voting forms last year. Whereas Galloway later protested that his tribute to the Butcher of Baghdad ("Si...

Medicine, politics, and a few pet rants. Laquo; Bread for the masses. A dangerous trick of the mind…. May 18, 2007. What is the BMA for? I am a member of the BMA. It costs me nearly 400 per annum. I like the magazine, and I like to know what jobs are being advertised. Those are about the only benefits it brings me. System introduced by my favourite health secretary. What does the BMA do? Nothing. In fact James Johnson wrote THIS. Letter to the Times today supporting the process. May 18, 2007 at 10:23 am.

Medicine, politics, and a few pet rants. Laquo; Asleep but not dead…. Has Murdoch Ditched Gordon? April 24, 2008. Back after a long layoff: I have decided that if I post only infrequently then I won’t get too many readers so I can be more than usually self-indulgent. And knowing how or whether to maintain hope when there is none. All of my patients have thought about dying, each in their own way, and many of them are happy to talk about it. Some are not. very few will introduce the subject...Honesty o...

STAN'S VERY DEEP BLOG: February 2009
http://istanbultory.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
STAN'S VERY DEEP BLOG. Thursday, February 19, 2009. This does not mark a resumption of service. I am too busy getting gloriously rich. Mandelson.Some might regard him as a poisonous creep of the highest degree and one many would never like to have dinner with. I beg to differ, guv. I’m glad Mandelson, Baron Mandelson, is back. My own tuppence-worth is that the ressurrection of this potent symbol of the Blair era will bring the masses flocking back to the essential sense and decency of NuLabour.

The Quizzical Gaze: June 2011
http://quizzicalgaze.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 28 June 2011. Signs o' the times. I have been honeymooning in Italy with the lovely Mrs QG, hence the lack of posting. Here are some pictorial talking points:. This was spotted at the Victor Emmanuel monument in Rome ( qv. Granted my Italian is not all that but I do wonder how one might ' overcome the barriers of location. But I strongly approve of the concept of relevance for monuments. Moving swiftly on - a sign on the stairs of the basilica of St Peter's:. Links to this post. Man in a Shed.

Ashes build up and cricket comment. Monday, October 23, 2006. Round one goes to the Aussies, after they unleashed the full force of their pace attack against a hapless England one-day line up to devastating effect. Australia's rout of England in the ICC trophy group stages has prompted grumpy old Geoff Boycott to call for Duncan Flecther to annouce his retirement plans in his Daily Telegraph column. That '"You cannot set the batting order expecting to be five down after 10 overs.". Thirdly, young speedst...

Medicine, politics, and a few pet rants. Laquo; A Tale of three drugs. Into the ears of babes and sucklings…. May 15, 2007. In your Liverpool slums. In your Liverpool slums. You look in the dustbin for something to eat. You find a dead rat and you think it’s a treat. In your Liverpool slums. In your Liverpool slums. In your Liverpool slums. You s* t on the carpet, you p* s in the bath. You finger your grandma, and think it’s a laugh. In your Liverpool slums. Tribalism is the very essence of football.

Medicine, politics, and a few pet rants. Laquo; Into the ears of babes and sucklings…. Bread for the masses. May 16, 2007. Grammar schools are an odd thing to get hung up on. What we should be getting hung up on is these three facts. 1) There is less social mobility in this country now than there was 50 years ago, and less in Britain than in almost every developed nation. It has even got worse (amazingly) despite 10 years of a Labour government. May 17, 2007 at 1:21 am. Would it not be a good idea to hav...
