In the News

The blame game is in progress as Mumbai recovers from its three day siege which has left nearly 200 people dead (reports say most were Indian nationals which would suggest that Hindus sufficed when terrorists could not kill Americans, Britons or Jews), several injured, at least one orphaned child, a murdered Canadian doctor and an economic capital at a standstill. India blames Pakistan, Pakistan denies it, and two terrorists may have had British passports. Here is a run-down (I'm sure one of many).

This blog here has a rather disgusting if not eye-opening post on where our food comes from. Take a look.

A rather interesting letter about a largely ignored country.

What could happen if the opposition parties move to dissolve the government. This would be over the money they take from us to maintain their brittle yet annoying status. The parties (all of them) labour under the illusion that their presence is needed to stabilise a democracy which does not have proportional representation, nor is it a republic.

Splitting hairs with people who are presumably adults and therefore capable of hearing out an argument. Nothing beats university life.
