Prison Works

Peter Briffa noted the link between decreasing crime and increasing imprisonment - now Civitas' David Green defends the policy in the Observer of all places.

And Andrew Rawnsley has wise words on the 'Blair Crisis' - none of which will (hopefully) be heeded. I find it hard to believe Labour could be foolish enough to depose him - but wasn't it Schiller who said 'Against stupidity the gods themselves battle in vain ?'.

It's too late (I think) to pay my £33 and get in - but time to pack up the children and park on a nearby hill for some military-industrial indoctrination at the greatest 'big boys toys' show in Britain - the Fairford Tattoo. Byee !
