The news that one of the Guantanamo suspects has been freed on his arrival in the UK begs the obvious question -- why was he kept in Cuba so long? If it is found they were held on the most flimsy of evidence I hope all the decent Starters will make attempts to disassociate themselves from George Bush, lest we think they support this kind of thing.Changing subject, given 'libertarians' believe that liberty is the freedom from being prevented doing something, rather than the freedom to do something, presumably they believe English people were more free to travel the world in 1750 than they are in today's world of passports and visas. Isn't that weird?
After our dicussion about the hatred between the two rugby codes, put down to a mixture of class-hatred and regionalism, what can describe the behavour that made me watch not only Man U's defeat against Porto live, but also a Sky+ recording of it this morning to just start the day off on a bang? I would call it anti-Mancism, but as everyone knows all their supporters come from Kent.
